Hi,
They can start to play the game at any age from 5 onwards. As far as training is concerned, first let them enjoy the game and develop a passion for it. If they don't then no matter how much training is prescribed, they will not reach their potential.
Usually at 10 to 12 players can start thinking about more regular training. By 14 to 15 if they are still enjoying the game then they will start to train more days per week.

#32 - Effective Returns
In this training plan we put together all of the different returns we've learnt and focus on producing an effective return. You should be aiming to topspin all long serves and then weighing up your options on the short serve. A good short push is a great option but you also need some variation with either a flick or a long fast push. Go out and put this training plan into action and work on improving your return.
