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. Participants 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 experience:
Beginner: Players who are new to the game and have little to no formal instruction. They are focused on learning the fundamentals and the basic rules of tennis. Typically play for recreation and have very little or no match-play experience. USTA rating of 2.0 or lower, or no rating.
Intermediate: Players who can serve and maintain rallies with some consistency. They are fairly reliable with medium-paced shots but may struggle with certain strokes and lack precision in directional control and power. Generally play recreationally at their local club. USTA rating of 3.0.
- Advanced: Players with dependable strokes and strong directional control. They display an all-around competitive spirit, improved court coverage, and are developing strategies for both singles and doubles play. These players compete regularly at local clubs or travel to participate in USTA tournaments. USTA rating of 3.5 and above.

Reviews & Testimonials

Phenomenal Camp
August 14, 2019: It was fantastic. Phenomenal. That's all. And I don't usually review things. Looking forward to attending the next one.
-
fun!
June 30, 2016: Brandon keeps things light and fun; Lenny & Stephen are interactive, but not intrusively so; the college player/coaches are fun to be around, because of their youth and enthusiasm for tennis.
-
A great experience overall
August 18, 2016: A great experience overall. The groupings seemed very well put together and all of the coaches were very encouraging. Some place to store valuables might be nice too. Thanks.

Had an incredible time
July 18, 2017: I had an incredible time at the Nike tennis camp at Stanford, and playing with the university coaches was really inspiring. Overall, I would definitely come back and have already recommended the Nike tennis camps to friends. My only critique is that some of the college-age coaches were less helpful in giving feedback. They were obviously amazing players in great college programs, but had less experience coaching/ translating what they know how to do to a beginner-intermediate player. It didn't detract from my overall high opinion of the program, but the variance in coaching experience court by court was very obvious.

technical instruction was grea
August 20, 2016: Overall I thought the technical instruction was great. Some of the instructors offered more feedback than others, liked more feedback!
-
Increase warm up time
July 11, 2017: Increase warm up time in the morning, including stretches and at least 1hr of hitting balls Provide camper with personalized diagnostic of areas to work on after the camp
-
concepts were clearly explained
August 28, 2016: The instructors were good and the concepts were clearly explained. I would prefer to have a longer time in practicing specific strokes learned in each segment. A full-day program instead of half-day program should allow for that.
-
would recommend
August 15, 2015: Overall, enjoyed it and would recommend.
-
instructors were excellent
August 25, 2015: The instructors were excellent, particularly Vita, Lupe, and Vanessa.

Would have liked to stay at each station longer
July 14, 2017: Would have liked to stay at each station for a longer amount of time before shuffling to another station. The college-age staffers could have displayed more energy and been a little more informative; they could have been more engaging.
-
Enjoyed interacting with Stanford staff
August 21, 2019: Chances to interact with Stanford Assistant Tennis Coach and many enthusiastic college players was great. Rotating sessions. Multiple opportunities for individual instruction.
