Our camps are famous for a wide array of games! We expect this level to include players between the ages of 8 and 12. Classes are always segregated by age and ability. This level will use a range of tennis balls to develop skills. That includes use of the ORANGE, GREEN and YELLOW Balls. This has been quite effective in achieving our goals of fun and skill! Camps offered each week at 9:45 - 11:00am and 2:15 - 3:30pm Fee: $69 per morning or afternoon session Class #1951 TEEN TENNIS/MIDDLE SCHOOL/HIGH SCHOOL – It is never too late to start tennis! We envision this program to be for the 13 or older player with varying levels of experience. This program has created many Varsity level tennis players in the past 10 years. There was even (1) State Runner-up that can claim participation in this program. This is also a perfect fit for Middle School and High School lower Junior Varsity players. Our curriculum is different in that it focuses on skills needed to succeed on a high school or middle school team. These skills include consistency, movement, balance and doubles foundation. Camps offered each week at 11:00 - 12:30pm and 3:30 - 5:00pm Fee: $79 per morning or afternoon session Class #1952 **Refunds will only be granted PRIOR to the beginning of a program.
