  • Stan Smith Record at the Ojai
    By Steve Pratt Fifty years ago this month, Stan Smith came to Ojai as a shy, 18-year-old USC freshman from Pasadena, the reigning national junior champion, and playing on one of tennis’ grandest stages, the final of the Men’s Open Division at the 66th annual Ojai Tennis Tournament. In a probably otherwise forgettable final for Smith, he was beaten by UCLA junior Charlie Pasarell, 6-3, 6-1, on that day in 1965 in just 38 minutes with Pasarell’s passing shots no match for the net-charging Smith. In the doubles final later in the day, the Los Angeles Times reported that Smith and Bob Lutz teamed up to exact some revenge against Pasarell and his UCLA teammate Joaquin Loyo-Mayo, winning the match, 2-6, 9-7, 8-6 in a division that debuted at The Ojai in the year 1900. It will be hard for Smith not to get nostalgic during the playing of the 115th edition of the venerable tournament known as one of the most storied anywhere within tennis circles. Smith is returning to The Ojai in April for the first time since he began his long and storied career all those years ago as the tournament’s honored guest in 2015. Smith will be the featured speaker at the Thursday night barbecue, as well as mingle with Ojai tennis fans at a special fundraising wine event hosted by the Ojai Vineyard Tasting Room on Friday night. A good friend of Weil Academy’s Mark Weil, Smith’s daughter once attended the Weil Academy and he paid a visit to Ojai while she was there a little over a decade ago.

  • Positioning Youth Tennis for Success-W References 2.Indd
    POSITIONING YOUTH TENNIS FOR SUCCESS POSITIONING YOUTH TENNIS FOR SUCCESS BRIAN HAINLINE, M.D. CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER UNITED STATES TENNIS ASSOCIATION United States Tennis Association Incorporated 70 West Red Oak Lane, White Plains, NY 10604 usta.com © 2013 United States Tennis Association Incorporated. All rights reserved. PREFACE The Rules of Tennis have changed! That’s right. For only the fifth time in the history of tennis, the Rules of Tennis have changed. The change specifies that sanctioned events for kids 10 and under must be played with some variation of the courts, rules, scoring and equipment utilized by 10 and Under Tennis. In other words, the Rules of Tennis now take into account the unique physical and physiological attributes of children. Tennis is no longer asking children to play an adult-model sport. And the rule change could not have come fast enough. Something drastic needs to happen if the poor rate of tennis participation in children is taken seriously. Among children under 10, tennis participation pales in relation to soccer, baseball, and basketball. Worse, only .05 percent of children under 10 who play tennis participate in USTA competition. Clearly, something is amiss, and the USTA believes that the new rule governing 10-and- under competition will help transform tennis participation among American children through the USTA’s revolutionary 10 and Under Tennis platform. The most basic aspect of any sport rollout is to define the rules of engagement for training and competition. So in an attempt to best gauge how to provide the proper foundation for kids to excel in tennis—through training, competition, and transition—the USTA held its inaugural Youth Tennis Symposium in February 2012.
