RB Tennis Junior Team 2026-27
The RB Tennis Junior Team is for serious tennis players ages 11-18 who wish to add match play and the fun of being on the team to their regular tennis clinics. We plan to have 4 teams (12U, 14U, 16U, 18U) compete in the USTA North Jersey League.
All players affiliated with RB Tennis are eligible to play.
Session One: October 10th-Jan 16th cost: $480
Session Two- Jan 23rd- April 24th cost $480
The Junior Team runs October-April. Before the league matches begin, which is usually late Oct/early Nov, we will hold practice every other week. During the season, players will either have a match on Saturday or can come to training. Each team can have 8-10 players.
Coach Liam Rodriguez will run the teams under the guidance of Brendan Lynaugh and Rick Bograd. While USTA rules forbid any form of coaching by anyone during the matches, Coach Liam can give feedback to players afterward. Parents will also be involved as “parent captains” for away matches and will be given training to help ensure away matches run smoothly.
During the regular season, players will be afforded the opportunity to play an equal number of matches. In the playoffs, priority will be given to the stronger players.
Home Matches/Training Time
18U/16U 3-5PM

Away matches depend on the opponent. Match times have been 3:30-5:30, 4-6, 5-7, or 6-8 on Saturdays. It’s possible an away match could be scheduled for Sunday.
Tryouts: cost $40
12U: September 26th 5-7pm
14U: October 3rd 5-7pm
16U: September 26th 3-5pm

Please make every effort to be available for tryouts on the specified day. If that is not possible, we will try to find an alternative time.
Which age group am I eligible for? If you are 12 years old in November, you can be on the 12U team. If you are 13 years old in November, you would be on the 14U team. While younger players can play “up” on older teams, older players can not play down.
