About
The objective of Rainbow Kidz is to build a clearer and more easily accessible training and competitive pathway for players aged 10 and under. The focus is on being introduced to competition and learn the rules for matchplay.

Orange and Green ball singles and doubles matches are included during events. The aim is to give skills for life, get children into the game improve tennis skills and learn the rules so when they transition into the u/12 section they are more confident and prepared.

Orange – For players that are physically too small to compete on the normal size tennis court, as the size of the court will allow technical, tactical, physical and mental competencies to develop. First time players are recommended to enter the orange section.

Green – For players that can score and have some match play experience, even if it was just practice matches. Also, for better players to develop the necessary tennis skills and be better equipped to transition into the u/12 section.

We recommend parents engage and receive advice from the coach on which section to enter. If you are unsure please contact us at

  Overall Experience
There were a long waiting time between matches sometimes more than 2 hours. I understand recovery time is necessary for those playing 3-set matches but it is not really necessary for the 30-minute timed format. I would appreciate if TSA improves the efficiency of the Rainbow Kidz tournaments, especially under the timed format. Some children lost their focus due to the long waiting time.

One more issue about rules. We were told at the beginning that playoffs, especially semi-finals and the final, will be played with Best of 3 short sets (1st to 4 games to win a set). However, it was changed to the timed format without any clear explanation. This change seemed to disappoint some players who achieve the first position in their respective round-robin boxes and were looking for real matches to become a champion.

Officials on the day were kind and helpful. As for the venue, two courts out of six need to be resurfaced, although most of the little players didn't seem to have much issues with it.
