Thanks for the feedback.

Overview

Camp is half instruction and half games. Games will be played both morning and afternoon.

Camp coaches will likely be experienced, local volunteers both adults and mature teenagers.

Players registering need their own tennis racket and of course running shoes.

Tennis balls (within reason) will be provided.

Rain, extreme summer heat, and camper fatigue can all lead to a video being shown at any time in our camps. Sample videos used include: Sandlot, The Big Green, Kicking and Screaming. Like Mike, A Kid In King Arthur's Court, Rebound, etc.

Also, we have a fairly large collection of miscellaneous tennis rackets which may be loaned to your kids if you want to forgo the added cost of purchasing a racket(s) for this camp.
