How good are boys 16's and 18's

[Skanavis]

how good are 16's and 18's players that play in USTA tournaments in the challenger division? I am interested in doing some USTA tournaments in the summer and fall, and im wondering about what ntrp or what characteristics the players Will have that i will play. One of the Tournaments I was thinking of was this one http://tennislink.usta.com/Tournaments/TournamentHome/Tournament.aspx?T=65357

I would really like to know what level I would have to be at to compete in those. I already have the footspeed (my coach said I was as fast as the players in a ******* masters division tournament). But everything else is lacking, so i would like to know what i need to improve in.

Thanks!

Challenger level tournaments in the Pacific Northwest for boys 16's are usually won by players who would be competitive at the NTRP 4.0 level. These are good players with usually one or two very good attributes but also one or two exploitable weaknesses.
