From the tournament desk
Welcome to the ESTA Red Ball Tournament at Sheraton Vistana Resort!
We are excited to host young players ages 8 and under for a fun, engaging day of tennis. Our Red Ball tournament is designed to introduce children to competition in a supportive and positive environment. All matches will be played on smaller Hard court with lower-compression red balls to help players develop their skills and confidence.
Our beautiful facility features 8 Har-Tru clay courts and 2 hard courts, as well as a variety of dining options on property and nearby for families to enjoy.
Draws and match times will be posted on Friday by noon. You will not receive a confirmation until after the registration deadline. You may register or withdraw without penalty up until the deadline. Once registration has closed, your card will be charged and no refunds will be issued.
To check draws and start times, please visit the Draws tab on our website and locate your player’s division.
Warm-up courts may or may not be available depending on the number of matches and the size of the tournament. Please plan accordingly.

FAQs:
Why hasn’t my credit card been charged yet / I need to withdraw?
You have up until the time registration closes to withdraw without being charged. Credit cards are not charged when you register. If you need to withdraw before registration closes, please follow the directions in the link titled “How to Withdraw.” Once registration has closed, your card will be charged and the fee is non-refundable.
What time will the tournament start?
Tournament usually starts after 2 pm.
How will I know when the draws have been posted?
Typically, the draws are posted on Friday morning by 12:00 PM. Please do not call, text, or email prior to this time asking for your match times. If we have not posted the draws, it is because they are not finalized yet. When the draws are complete and posted, you will find them under the Draws tab. We will also send out an email notification to inform players to check online.
I live far away. Can I get a late start?
No. Since these are round robin formats, all players typically need to start at the same time.

Questions parents ask
Will my junior get in?
No draw is full yet. Selection is by ranking list, so a junior with no ranking can still get in when a draw is not full, and goes on the alternate list when it is.
What is a Unsanctioned?
USTA junior tournaments run from Level 7 (local, open to anyone) up to Level 1 (national). Lower number, stronger field, more points.
When do we know?
Selections post after entries close (Wed, Sep 16, 11:59pm EDT). Draws usually post the week of the tournament. Text Coach Ace and we will tell you the moment either one lands.
