Questions parents ask
Will my junior get in?
Boys' Doubles 12 & under, Boys' Singles 12 & under, Boys' Doubles 14 & under, Boys' Singles 14 & under, Boys' Doubles 16 & under, Girls' Doubles 12 & under, Girls' Singles 12 & under, Girls' Doubles 14 & under, Girls' Singles 14 & under, Girls' Doubles 16 & under are full; the rest have room. 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 Level 2?
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 (Tue, Oct 13, 11:59am EDT). Draws usually post the week of the tournament. Text Coach Ace and we will tell you the moment either one lands.
