UTR Sports has had a deep and strong partnership with Tennis Australia (TA) since its inception. With the recent adoption of the Universal Tennis Rating (UTR Rating) as the official rating of Australia by TA, they have been investing in providing the right tools to aid the development and enjoyment of our sport for all players. As part of their recent review of the competitive landscape in Australia, one of the recommendations was that only a limited rating should be provided to players under the age of 13 to encourage these young players to emphasize developing their skills and less on a fully detailed two-decimal rating.
PLAYER WITH NO DATE OF BIRTH
Players who don’t have a DOB in our system will show as UnRated (UR) for both Free and Power subscribers

PLAYER BELOW 10 YEARS OLD

PLAYER BETWEEN 10 AND 12

PLAYER AGED 13 AND UP
Players aged 13 and up will have two decimal ratings viewing their own profile as Free subscribers
Note: All Free subscribers will show a whole number rating when viewing other profiles while Power Players will have access to 2 decimal rating in viewing all profiles regardless of age
