Synopsis:

The story follows Ryouma Echizen as he joins an unprecedented U-17 national tennis training camp, now open to middle school players. This exclusive program brings together Japan's top young talents, sparking resentment from the established high school contingent. Participants are ranked and compete in daily "shuffle matches," a rigorous system determining access to the most prestigious courts. The intense competition forces players to confront not only their athletic limitations but also the complexities of friendship and loyalty. As the camp progresses, the stakes escalate beyond mere skill development, testing the boundaries of camaraderie and individual ambition within a demanding environment. The series explores the psychological pressures inherent in striving for excellence and the sacrifices demanded by pursuing one's passion.
