These camps follow the USTA’s scaled training and skills development curriculum for kids. It is an exciting play format with court dimensions appropriate for the size, age and skill of the player. By scaling down the court size, playing with balls that bounce lower and travel slower and using appropriately sized racquets, players develop technique and tactics much faster than they otherwise would.
Focus: The coaching emphasizes a focused approach to the game within a fun and encouraging environment. Players at this level are taking their first steps on a journey that could become their lifetime sport. The program is based on establishing the player’s foundations which they will build from while growing into a successful tennis player. This is where basic stroke production begins, focusing on ground strokes and the serve. We stress the importance of rallying with partners and players develop sufficient consistency to sustain longer rallies..
Format: The day starts with a dynamic warm up and 2 hours of on-court tennis skills building with a 30 minute mid-morning snack break. Camp uses 75% slower tennis balls that bounce at a level proportionate to a child’s height to allow better and longer rallies, encouraging the development of all-court games, racquet skills, physical awareness and confidence.
