Sports Power's Junior Entry Level Tournament:

Entries are now open for our Sports Power's Junior Entry Level Tournament. As with last term, we will be running divisions across separate days, this provided capacity for more matches and avoiding the heat with a later start. Our Red & Orange court divisions will run on Friday 21st March, 5pm start (TBC) & our Green court divisions will run Saturday & Sunday 22-23rd March, 4pm start (both days TBC). Draws & times will be released online and confirmed by Thursday the 20th of March.

 

For those who haven't been involved in our previous junior entry level tournament, this event is aimed towards juniors between the ages of 6-15 years. The objective of this tournament is to create an easy-going, low-pressure environment to give these kids a good first-time tournament experience. Our coaches will be present on court as a familiar face to help the kids overcome their nerves, help them understand the rules & scoring, as well as continue to encourage them in what is a daunting experience first time round. We understand the importance of making sure these kids have an enjoyable first-time experience, as this will dictate if they want to compete in future events.

 

By using the Entry Level Tournament as a lead-in event to help build the confidence of our newer players, it will allow us to transition a higher percentage of players into the competitive space of our sport. These players will have a better understanding of what to expect and our coaches will be able to let them know if they are ready to take the next leap in their tournament journey. We have been using this model over the past 2 years and it has proven to work as we are the largest Club in the NT when it comes to participation in the competition space.
