  • Gender: Coed
  • Age Range: 9-18
  • Skill Level: Beginner, Intermediate & Advanced

SKILL LEVELS & GROUP PLACEMENT

Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week. Campers are then sorted by ability first, then age per the Camp Director's discretion - adjustments are made as needed during camp.

While there are many ways to define skill levels, the following descriptions are what the Camp Directors at Nike Tennis Camps will use to organize and group camp participants. At the time of registration, please choose the level that best represents your athlete's experience:

  • Beginner: Players new to the game with little to no formal tennis instruction. They are still learning the fundamentals, focusing on basic skills and rules of the game. Typically play for recreation and have minimal match-play experience.

  • Intermediate: Players who can serve and sustain rallies with consistency. They are comfortable hitting medium-paced shots but may struggle with all strokes and directional control. Some may have participated in local tournaments and possess a UTR rating or are equivalent to a High School JV player.

  • Advanced: Players with dependable strokes and solid directional control. They demonstrate a strong competitive spirit, improved court coverage, and are developing strategies for both singles and doubles play. These players frequently compete in tournaments and have a USTA or UTR rating, or are equivalent to a High School Varsity player.

    • 5/5.

    July 09, 2018: Networking with other tennis players. Increase knowledge within the tennis basic fundamentals just from watching and playing with other players. Physical & mental tactics to use while on and off court

    • 5/5.
  • disappointed with the lunch options

    6/30/2016 - I was disappointed with the lunch options this year. They were not as good as last year. We were in a different dining hall. Many campers found food at other venues.

    • 2/5.
  • The staff was amazing

    July 14, 2016: This is my second year at Duke Tennis Camp and I thought it couldn't get better than last year...but it did! The staff was amazing, per usual, and the overall experience was topped!

    • 5/5.
  • We will be back next year

    6/27/2015 - Overall the camp is great. The one suggestion that we would have is on the first day of camp more time should be spent on assessment and making sure campers are equally matched with their skill level and be in a group with equal or better skill level and also get more personal attention for lesson, I know it is hard to do with a huge group. We will be back next year. My 2 boys, ages 14 and 15, went to the camp and are both on the Varsity Tennis Camp at their private school in Cary, NC and would love to wear Nike Tennis stuff to practice and spread the word about the camp, they actually recruited 2 extra players to join them this past camp in addition to the 2 they brought last year. Thank you so much!!!!

    • 4/5.
  • had a great time and will definitely go back

    July 8, 2016: This was my 2 sons 3rd year at the camp and first time sleeping over. They had a great time and will definitely go back next year!!!

    • 5/5.
  • challenged throughout the week

    6/30/2016 - My daughter really enjoyed the camp this year. She was eight at the time and we appreciate you all allowing her to participate even though she wasn't nine yet. Also because she is a high level player, I appreciate that the staff noticed this and moved her with the older kids. She was challenged throughout the week and there was also time for her to make friends with the kids closer to her age as well. Her experience at Duke makes it a high choice on her list if she plays in college. She had a lot of fun and can't wait to attend next year. The staff was great.

    • 5/5.
  • Fun and enthusiastic instructors

    7/3/2016 - Fun and enthusiastic instructors and very well organized especially with time for all campers on the indoor and outside courts! All of our three boys enjoyed the camp!

    • 5/5.
  • Great overall experience

    July 23, 2017: She met many new friends from all over the country with the same interest in tennis. The campus was beautiful and when in free time they had fun things to do like the movies, swimming or even more tennis practice if they wanted.

    • 5/5.
  • Enjoyed the competitive nature

    July 05, 2017: He enjoyed the more competitive nature of the tennis program. The instructors were nice and he really enjoyed the kids. Overall, it was helpful to his game. It would be nice if there was more than one evaluation. A written evaluation to parents on strengths and areas to develop--something short wold be nice. One thing he mentioned was there not being enough instructors that they got much individual attention--of course it is camp and not a one on one.

    • 4/5.
  • Residence was a great time, food was excellent

    7/6/2016 - My son had always wanted to attend Duke. The camp offered a great opportunity to do so. He was disappointed in the lack of coaching he received. He was hoping for some ideas and tips that are different from his full-time coach at home. Residence was a great time, food was excellent, so that was a great experience. He would have liked an opportunity to be re-assessed after the first day as he felt he would like to be in a group that was more challenging. While it may seem that my responses to this survey are negative, that is really only in place due to his response about the level of coaching.

    • 3/5.
  • My kid had so much fun

    7/1/2016 - The staff is phenomenal. I like that there are incentives and rewards throughout the week to encourage players who aren't the best. Anything you do to enhance the free time hour makes for a great camp report...and this year the reports were great! My kid had SO much fun and felt encouraged about her improvements in tennis. Thank you!!! If you are going to close out camp on Thursday you should at least make it a full day and end 30 minutes early for the ceremony. Also, the ceremony should be indoors, in the a/c and shade, like last year?!! Parents don't arrive with a layer of sunscreen and/or with clothes appropriate for baking in the sun for 30 minutes...everyone was hiding underneath bushes and trees trying to watch the ceremony.

    • 4/5.
  • Had a great time

    July 6, 2017: Camryn had a great time and is already talking about next year's camp. She met some great campers and she learned how to slice!!!

    7/11/2015 - Great experience. The counselors are knowledgeable and fun to work with.

    • 4/5.
  • Excellent and challenging experience

    July 17, 2017: The best part was definitely that lots of good players were gathered in one place, at all levels, from basic to advanced. Therefore the camp proved an excellent and most challenging experience. It was extremely fun to play tennis for so many hours every day! (6 hours) Wow!!! :)The days were very well planned and full of activity!

    July 02, 2017: She loved it. She wished people would put away their phones and play games and connect more when they were hanging around the dorm.

    • 4/5.
  • food was mediocre

    July 9, 2016: This 4th year I've attended the Duke Tennis Camp. The first year, the food was great - the cafeteria was open and there were lots of healthy choices. The past 3 years, though, the food was mediocre. There need to be more healthy choices for athletes!

    • 3/5.

    July 02, 2017: Bryce enjoyed each day at camp and gained confidence with all of his swings. We flew in from out of town and hope to return next year

  • great week of camp

    7/10/2015 - Camp was a lot of fun this year. Counselors were great , I made plenty of friends, and I was able to compete and have fun with other good players on the courts. The competition on the courts as well as the off court activities combined to make for one great week of camp! Hopefully I can come back and be a counselor next year!

    6/30/2016 - My daughter really enjoyed the camp this year. She was eight at the time and we appreciate you all allowing her to participate even though she wasn't nine yet. Also because she is a high level player, I appreciate that the staff noticed this and moved her with the older kids. She was challenged throughout the week and there was also time for her to make friends with the kids closer to her age as well. Her experience at Duke makes it a high choice on her list if she plays in college. She had a lot of fun and can't wait to attend next year. The staff was great.

  • Great overall experience

    July 23, 2017: She met many new friends from all over the country with the same interest in tennis. The campus was beautiful and when in free time they had fun things to do like the movies, swimming or even more tennis practice if they wanted.

  • Enjoyed the competitive nature

    July 05, 2017: He enjoyed the more competitive nature of the tennis program. The instructors were nice and he really enjoyed the kids. Overall, it was helpful to his game. It would be nice if there was more than one evaluation. A written evaluation to parents on strengths and areas to develop--something short wold be nice. One thing he mentioned was there not being enough instructors that they got much individual attention--of course it is camp and not a one on one.

  • Residence was a great time, food was excellent

    7/6/2016 - My son had always wanted to attend Duke. The camp offered a great opportunity to do so. He was disappointed in the lack of coaching he received. He was hoping for some ideas and tips that are different from his full-time coach at home. Residence was a great time, food was excellent, so that was a great experience. He would have liked an opportunity to be re-assessed after the first day as he felt he would like to be in a group that was more challenging. While it may seem that my responses to this survey are negative, that is really only in place due to his response about the level of coaching.

  • My kid had so much fun

    7/1/2016 - The staff is phenomenal. I like that there are incentives and rewards throughout the week to encourage players who aren't the best. Anything you do to enhance the free time hour makes for a great camp report...and this year the reports were great! My kid had SO much fun and felt encouraged about her improvements in tennis. Thank you!!! If you are going to close out camp on Thursday you should at least make it a full day and end 30 minutes early for the ceremony. Also, the ceremony should be indoors, in the a/c and shade, like last year?!! Parents don't arrive with a layer of sunscreen and/or with clothes appropriate for baking in the sun for 30 minutes...everyone was hiding underneath bushes and trees trying to watch the ceremony.

  • Excellent and challenging experience

    July 17, 2017: The best part was definitely that lots of good players were gathered in one place, at all levels, from basic to advanced. Therefore the camp proved an excellent and most challenging experience. It was extremely fun to play tennis for so many hours every day! (6 hours) Wow!!! :)The days were very well planned and full of activity!

    July 02, 2017: She loved it. She wished people would put away their phones and play games and connect more when they were hanging around the dorm.

  • food was mediocre

    July 9, 2016: This 4th year I've attended the Duke Tennis Camp. The first year, the food was great - the cafeteria was open and there were lots of healthy choices. The past 3 years, though, the food was mediocre. There need to be more healthy choices for athletes!

  • great week of camp

    7/10/2015 - Camp was a lot of fun this year. Counselors were great , I made plenty of friends, and I was able to compete and have fun with other good players on the courts. The competition on the courts as well as the off court activities combined to make for one great week of camp! Hopefully I can come back and be a counselor next year!

  • July 8, 2022: One of the highlights from Nike's tennis camp at Duke was meeting new friends from all over the states and learning with them. Secondly, having the opportunity to be coached by, play with, and get to know 2 players from the Duke women's tennis team.

  • June 16, 2023: My daughter moved to the US a few months ago. She's been off the the court for over 2 years because the high-school she joined back in Kenya didn't have tennis. However, this didn't kill her passion for the sport. This camp was her entry point to tennis after the long break and I can say that her full energy is back! The top of the week was her being awarded the mental toughness award at the award ceremony. She's so fired up to attend another camp! I'm a happy mother!
