Bloemendaal returns to the High Country after serving as the Owner of Topspin Racquet & Swim Club in Lexington, South Carolina since January 2019 where he oversaw all tennis operations of the club and the operations of the Capital City Tennis Academy. "To be able to bring back a member of the Lees-McRae College Fred I. Dickerson Hall of Fame who played here and coached here with great success is truly a proud moment for many," said Craig McPhail, Vice President for Athletics and Club Sports. "Coach Bloemendaal will invigorate our tennis community, bring a high level of collegiate skill development, recruiting and tennis strategy to our Bobcat tennis teams as we use our new facility." In his first time at the helm of the Bobcat tennis programs, Bloemendaal was the Carolinas-Virginia Athletic Conference (CVAC) Coach of the Year six times and garnered the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Regional Coach of the Year three times. He was also a finalist for the ITA National Coach of the Year in 2001. Under Bloemendaal, the Lees-McRae women's tennis program won the CVAC Tournament twice in 2001 and 2002 and were crowned regular season champions in 2000, 2001, and 2002.On the men's side, the Bobcats collected tournament championships in five of six seasons from 1998-2003 and were the regular season champions in the CVAC for four straight years from 1998-2001.

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.
