ABOUT

The Journey Begins Here.

The RSPA Junior Circuit is a pilot junior tennis circuit for beginner to intermediate players in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio. Our home online is RookieTennis.com.

Why We Started

Tournament tennis can feel like a big step for a young player and their family. Long days, unfamiliar rules and tough draws can turn kids away before they ever find out how much fun competing can be. We wanted a better first step: events that are close to home, short, affordable and welcoming.

What Makes Us Different

Made for beginners and developing juniors.

This is a place to learn how to compete, not a place to be overwhelmed.

Short days.

Every tournament finishes within 4 hours.

Local first.

Each state hosts one-day tournaments.

A real pathway.

Local events lead to state championships, giving players a goal to work toward.

Organized and friendly.

A tournament director runs each event.

A Pilot Season

This is our pilot circuit, which means we’re building it together with families, coaches and directors. We’ll keep listening and improving as we go.
