- High School Program: The high school program 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 Program: The "10 and Under Tennis” Program features the USTA’s successful teaching format. This is an exciting way for kids 10 and under are learning to play tennis as well as compete. The balls are low-compression so they are easier to hit, allowing kids to get to the ball and develop optimal swing patterns.

July 22, 2023: My child attended this camp last year and this year was so excited that he was able to attend. Everyday he was very enthusiastic to tell me about his day at the camp, how nice were his coaches to him, the new techniques that he learned on the day and the matches he had. I would like to mention that I like that by the end of the day everyday the head coaches would be standing by the entrance gate saying good bye and giving good feedback to the campers as well as making sure that they left safe.

Knowing how many campers pass through that camp, their presence, approachability, and seeming personal support of Charlotte as an individual player meant a lot and really defined the week. Thank you!
