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 - Tiny Bison: 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 - Junior Bison: 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.

Great staff!
July 13, 2021: Benji has been taking lessons for approximately a year and was looking forward to getting time on the court actually playing and putting his skills training to use.

Coach and staff are wonderful
June 5, 2019: This is a great camp. It's hard to find options for younger kids that are not an all day camp. I love that this is a shorter amount of time and they do it early before it gets too hot. The coach and staff are wonderful. Looking forward to doing it again next year!

confidence and interest in playing tennis increased
July 17, 2016: My son's confidence and interest in playing tennis increased after this camp. He did a half day camp (he is 9 and a beginner) this year and said he wanted to try a full day camp next year. He really liked Coaches Mario and Dwight. They were very positive and encouraging. One suggestion, can the camp t-shirts be made of the dry-fit material? Since Nike is the sponsor of the camp, it would be great advertisement for the kids to wear Nike shirts made of sleek performance material. Also, it is very hot in Nashville in the summer, so my son would be much more likely to wear a dry-fit shirt while playing tennis in the summer.
