Juniors
One of the biggest and best team events of the junior tennis season is the Junior County Cup. Teams from every county in the nation come together for a series of regional and national events to uncover the champions. There are six age groups of competitions for the Junior County Cup – 9U, 10U, 11U, 12U, 14U and 18U – giving young players a chance to compete with top talent around Britain. All players must have an Advantage membership to compete.
Essex Selection Policy
