Junior Camp

Junior Tennis Camp: Ages 6-16 Years

The Junior Camp places a strong emphasis on tennis with extensive instruction for improved strokes, technique and match strategy. Groups are divided according to ability levels and work ethic. Each week closes with an in-house tournament as well as periodic travel matches against other local clubs.

Red Ball: Interactive play time introducing the fundamentals of tennis in a game-based environment. Focus on developing motor skills, movement and balance through fun activities and games. Designed to build a solid foundation for long-term athletic development. Use of red felt balls and 36-foot court.

Orange Ball: Players will be introduced to fundamentals of tennis through drills and rally games. Players utilize control, spin and positioning to their advantage while also being able to consistently rally and cooperate with a partner. We will be using orange balls on a 60-foot court.

Green Dot: This level includes a large element of competition and focus on point play. The ability to maintain proper technique during points and proficiency on serve are necessities before graduating to the next level. This group will use green balls on a 78-foot court.

Tournament Play: This program is designed for players who have chosen tennis as a primary sport and are actively participating in 10U or sanctioned tournaments. Also, for the player who participates in their middle school or junior varsity team. Discipline and hard work are stressed while concentrating on stroke technique and point play.
