Program Info
(Camp Code: TNXDER)
This year we are offering one week of Full Day (8:00am-2:30pm) or Half Day (8:00am-11:30am) camp for kids ages 8-18 of all skill levels. Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week.

Tournament Training and High School programs:
In addition to the All Skills program, this year we are offering a tournament training and a high school program as well. Make sure to note that you would like to participate in these programs when you register.

• The tournament training program is geared towards tournament level and ranked players looking to improve their tournament results, learn winning strategies, and work on mental toughness.
• The high school session is provided for players ages 13-18 currently on their high school team and wanting to move up the ladder or those planning on making the high school team.

10 and Under Tennis:
We also offer a “10 and Under Tennis” program for kids ages 8-10 years old, featuring the USTA’s successful  new teaching format. This is an exciting new way kids 10 and under are learning to play tennis as well as compete. The courts are smaller and balls are  low-compression so they are easier to hit, allowing kids to get to the ball and develop optimal swing patterns. It all makes it easy and fun for them to hit, play and score from the start, while developing skills that will last a lifetime. Please note: This program is optional and younger campers may opt to play regular tennis on the full courts.
