Competition
The UTR (universal tennis rating) is a global rating which is regarded as the most accurate and reliable index of tennis skill available to players, coaches, clubs, tournament and federations. Players are rated on a 16-point scale regardless of age, gender or nationality (16.5 being the highest). Player UTR’s move up and down depending upon their performance against other players and not specifically about whether they win or lose. “UTR is the best way to measure yourself against all other players regardless of age or level”. Novak Djokovic (UTR – 16.13).
Berkhamsted Tennis & Fitness will run regular UTR match play events for our players as well as for external players to offer competitive opportunities. All matches are level based, meaning that all players will get competitive matches that have direct effect on their UTR. All matches within 2 points will count towards UTR changes.

The Team Challenge Event are for kids of all ages. Participants will be spilt into two teams (names decided on the day). Players will then compete at the level they are training at. For example – any of our Enjoy Tennis players who sign up will play with the Red ball, Junior Development/Academy players who sign up will play with the yellow ball. There will be certificates and sometimes prizes at the end for all players with one team lifting the Team Challenge Cup!
Berkhamsted Tennis & Fitness hosts a number of events throughout the year. Having these events that are run by professionals in a team environment on your doorstep, will not only ensure you’ll have a great experience but that you will improve as people and tennis players.
