• Loved it!

  Liliana loved her camp counselors and playing tennis with friends. She said that this camp was very tennis focused, and she got a lot of playing time. She came home exhausted every day, but absolutely loved it. She enjoyed the camp so much that she asked us to sign her up for another session this summer.
• Can't wait for next summer

  She loved it!!! She is usually a reluctant tennis player and a bit lazy at times, but she had a great time and was exhausted at the end of every day but was still enthusiastic and looking to return every morning. She wanted us to sign her up for more weeks this summer and already has plans to return next summer. She loved interacting with the other campers, the young coaches, and playing the games and winning coupon/prizes!!!

• BIG 5 STAR

  I loved that the second I dropped off Christian the counselors instantly recognized him and welcomed with a big Awesome, Christian's back! It honestly set the tone for the entire week. This is our second time at the camp this summer. The first time my son went with a friend but the second time he had no problem going solo. That is a BIG 5 STAR camp in my book!

• My daughter had a really great time! She loved the counselors, the activities and the facilities. She had been to a different tennis camp in the past and did not like that one because it did not have any night time activities or other activities other than tennis. Nike camp seemed to have a good combination of both. Her counselors at Nike were amazing. Counselors were warm, friendly and fun. Camp did a good job of providing both tennis instruction and other camp activities so that they were occupied and having fun at all times.

• As a parent, I liked that it was at Pepperdine University and it was great for my kids to experience being on a prestigious and beautiful campus.
• My son loved the night games on Wednesday since he stayed for extended care. He also enjoyed the food and was motivated by the raffle tickets.
• Both drop off and pickup of my son. To him so excited to attend each day was everything. He genuinely enjoyed his time there and the staff.
• My children could not wait to go back the next day. It was easy for my children to eat a plant based diet in cafeteria (extremely important)

• can't wait to go back next year

  7/14/2016 - My son had a great time and can't wait to go back next year.
• cannot say enough positive things

  7/28/2015 - My daughter enjoyed this camp so much last year that she insisted on returning... and returning to this same location, Pepperdine. She was not disappointed. This year she said even exceeded her expectations from the last year!! The coaches were all excellent and they really did a wonderful job keeping the enthusiasm high!! I cannot say enough positive things. As a parent, I want to see improvement and Caroline came home with very practical advice to help her with her strokes and game in general. We can say these things until we are blue in the face, but hearing them from a peer was very powerful. The only down side to this camp is having it end at 3:30 on a Friday afternoon. The traffic was horrible. I would suggest having the camp run from Monday-Saturday!! Thanks again!
• Really enjoyed the drills and matches

  My child really enjoyed the drills, music games, mini tennis, and matches.
• great food and fun coaches

  The food was great. The coaches were super fun! I loved everything. I would have liked one more day to shop I wasn't able to get a sweatshirt from Pepperdine.

• Food was the weak link

  Food was the weak link. Also, water/drinks should have been included.
• better care from counselors

  7/29/2015 - The counselors need to tell the kids to wear T-shirts, not tank tops and wear more sunscreen to prevent burns. The food could also be more nutritious despite having just a salad available.
