Program Information

The tennis program is open to campers 7 to 18 years old. The two, three and four week programs are an excellent way to improve your game in all areas as well as meet new tennis partners. Each camper will be evaluated and placed into an instructional group according to his or her ability level. The ultimate way to improve your tennis is to attend a four to twelve day intensive program.

Beginners
The Beginner's Program will teach basic skills including the forehand, backhand, serve, and volley. It will also teach students how to score and play sets.

Intermediate
The Intermediate Program will teach all strokes and strategy including specialty shots such as drop shots, spin and slice strokes, and serves. Intermediate campers will also learn a variation of styles of play.

Advanced
The advanced Program will work on drills to improve accuracy and consistency under pressure and utilize training routines for mental and match toughness. The advanced players will learn all stages of training and conditioning for match play.

Maximum Improvement
This will be achieved through various combinations of multipurpose drills, which will improve movement, conditioning, stroke form, consistency and accuracy while gradually increasing the level of difficulty as the player becomes more proficient at each step. This training, combined with various forms of match play, entrains sound, consistent strokes and match toughness. This will insure maximum improvement. The student to instructor ratio is 5 to 1, with Ray Knight directing.

Important Notice:
All fees must be paid in full in advance of each week or day session. There will be no exception. Make-up days will be allowed for cancellations due to inclement weather.
