CAMP PROGRAMS
- All Skills Program: The All Skills program is designed for tennis players of any skill level and background and includes concentrated work to develop the proper fundamentals and a mix of drilling and match play.
- Tournament Training: We are hosting a Tournament Training session geared towards tournament level and ranked players, ages 8-18, looking to improve their tournament results, learn winning strategies, and work on mental toughness.
- 10 & Under: TThe “10 and Under Tennis” program features the USTA’s successful teaching format. This is an exciting 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.
- We offer Day Camp (8:45am-4:30pm) programs for boys and girls, ages 8-18, with All Skills and Tournament Training programs and we offer half-day 10 & Under camp.
