Tennis lessons and camps: 2026

Tennis Camp Overview.

  • Fundamentals

    We will go over the basic strokes in tennis. Proper grip technique, footwork, and scoring. As well, we will learn different tennis vocabulary.

  • Tennis Skills

    Many different sports teach different skills that kids need to develop for tennis. We will be playing different activities that help develop those skills like ball-tracking, balance, throwing, and catching.

  • Crafts and Extracurricular

    We will be doing tennis related crafts and other activities.

  • Fun

    It is most important for kids to have fun on the tennis court with their friends. As an RSPA Professional, one of the main themes in our training is that kids who are pushed too hard at an early age suffer from burnout and repetitive stress injuries later in life.

tEnnis camp Policies Below

  • Here is a list of items your child should have everyday:

    1. Tennis Racquet.

    2. Tennis Clothing and Shoes that are weather appropriate.

    3. Tennis hat or visor.

    5. Snack and Lunch.

    6. Sunscreen.

    8. Optional change of clothes.

    9. Bug Spray

  • We will make our final decision by 7:45 or 11:45 am on whether or not we will play that day. If it rains after 11 am or 2:30 pm, we will consider the camp a “full day.” If it rains before these times, we will have the opportunity to schedule a make-up session.

  • In the event of rain during camp, we expect your child to be picked up within 30 minutes of camp notifying the WhatsApp group that camp is cancelled for the day.

  • No. Because of the unique nature of this camp, we are not allowing refunds of any sort. If there are extenuating circumstances, we will work to give your child and a friend a complimentary 2-hour private lesson.

  • Please download WhatsApp to your phone. We will create a group chat in order for clear communication from the coaches to the parents.

  • Drop Off Time is 8:30 am daily unless otherwise communicated.

    Pick-up Time is 1 pm pr 3:30pm Daily, unless otherwise communicated.

    We will be there 1 hour before the start, so an early drop-off is okay, but we will not be providing activities.

    Late pick-ups. You must pick up your child by the necessary time or communicate to the coaches via WhatsApp.
