What do the numbers mean?

The numbers are NTRP ratings — the USTA’s shorthand for how you play. Here is the honest version.

Brand new

Never played, or back after twenty years off. We hand you a racquet. Start with USA 123, a New Player Clinic, or Sunday new-player doubles.

2.5

You can sustain a short rally and keep score. Direction is coming; consistency is the goal. Live ball and the 2.5+ lessons are yours.

3.0 – 3.5

Dependable strokes on moderate pace, real directional control, and you’ll come to the net when the ball invites it. The busiest tier on our schedule.

4.0 and up

Power and spin on demand, and you construct points rather than return them. York’s 4.0+ and 4.5+ clinics and the Sunday Pro Workout are built for you.
Still not sure? Call the front desk at (801) 487-3206 and ask for Karl or Brian — they will place you in the right group, and nobody minds if you move up or down after a session.

Before you call

Questions we get every week

Call the front desk at (801) 487-3206, or stop by in person. That is the only way to reserve a spot — there is no online booking for adult clinics.

No. You must sign up in advance for essentially every clinic. Courts and coaches are assigned ahead of time, so drop-ins are not allowed.

Popular evening clinics and weekend classes fill early in the week. If you have a clinic in mind, call a few days out. If you are flexible, the front desk can usually find you something within a day or two.

Call and ask for Karl Ward (801-368-6048) or Brian Smith (801-358-8145). They will place you in the right group. Nobody minds if you move up or down after a session — it happens all the time.

Not to start. Equipment is provided in the New Player Clinics, the Tuesday and Thursday morning lessons, and Sunday new player doubles. Once you are hooked, the pros will happily help you pick your first racquet.

Court shoes with non-marking soles, water, and clothes you can move in. Indoor courts run year round, so a light layer is useful in winter.

A lesson is instruction-led — drills, technique and skill building. A clinic mixes instruction with point play. Live ball is fast, continuous doubles with minimal standing around; it is the closest thing to a workout on the schedule.

Yes. Guest pricing is listed on every clinic above, typically $5 to $15 more than the member rate. Guests must be signed up in advance, same as members.

No. Adult clinics are paid per class, so you can come the weeks that work for your schedule.

The front desk can have you on a court this week. Tell them your level — or that you have no idea — and they will take it from there.
