Question

How old do you have to be in order to play your first tennis tournament?

Answer 1

No age. It all depends on your ability. they will not let anyone simply enter a tournament. You have to have risen through the ranks. You must at least be part of a club or something, having won tournaments in your area that are open for everyone. doing tournaments that get you recognised, that's when you can enter bigger, more open tournaments.

So techinically, there is no age limit. if you have won enough tournaments by the age of ten for your club and have been seen to be good, you can enter a minor tourey.

Answer 2

There isn't a specific age! If you're good and talented and your game shows promise, GET STARTED IMMEDIATELY! The sooner the better!

Answer 3

it doesn't matter. my younger sister played her first tournament when she was 8 and i played mine when i was 7. it all kinda depends on how good you are bc you don't really want to waste your opponent's time
