Pee Wee Summer Tennis

Ages 5-7

Kids learn tennis the fun way! Our energetic instructors use adaptive equipment and instructional methods to show kids that tennis is as much a “game” as it is a “sport.”

Beginner Summer Tennis

Ages 7 & Up

Players learn the necessary skills to play games and rally. Beginners start with grip, stance and swing. Advanced beginners and intermediates add movement, strategy and more specialized shots. By summer’s end, kids will be ready to play matches with friends!

Advanced Beginner/Intermediate Summer Tennis

Ages 7 & Up

Participants with a good understanding of the basics -- ground strokes, volleys, serves -- will love the advanced training that a drill provides. Skills are taught and then reinforced with games that specially emphasize them.

Drill Summer Tennis (all levels)

Ages 7 & Up

Participants with a good understanding of the basics -- ground strokes, volleys, serves -- will love the advanced training that a drill provides. Skills are taught and then reinforced with games that specially emphasize them.

Golf N Tennis Camp

Ages 5-12

Limited spots still available in each session-register soon! Golf and tennis are two life sports that appeal to athletes who are comfortable in both individual and team settings. Campers will alternate throughout the morning between tennis and golf with plenty of variety to keep things interesting. Kids are encouraged to bring their own equipment, but the Racket Club will provide equipment if necessary. The dimensions of the playing areas will be scaled down so campers can enjoy the camp at a smaller size and pace.
