IMPORTANT 10U PLAYER INFO
All 10U players are part of the USTA Net Generation PlayTracker and need to earn enough points to play at a certain ball color level. Once a player earns enough points through PlayTracker or turns 11 years old, they become eligible to play with a yellow (regular) ball.
All players ages 9 and 10 are automatically eligible to play green ball events.
We recommend ages 7 and 8 play ORANGE ball events until they have at least 1,000 Play points and the necessary skills for green ball level.
Be sure to review your player profile found on the family tab to confirm your current level. More information at: usta.com/norcal10u

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 Junior Circuit?
USTA junior tournaments run from Level 7 (local, open to anyone) up to Level 1 (national). Lower number, stronger field, more points.
Can we enter two divisions?
One event per player at this tournament. Pick the age group that matches your junior's birth year, or the one up if they are ready for it.
When do we know?
Selections post after entries close (Mon, Oct 19, 2:59pm PDT). Draws usually post the week of the tournament. Text Coach Ace and we will tell you the moment either one lands.
