About This Activity
Description
Apex Court Academy Summer Camp For Incoming 1st–4th Grade PlayersOur Junior Tennis Summer Camp focuses on keeping kids active and having fun while learning the basics of tennis. Every day of the week will include a mix of tennis drills, technical instruction, skill-based games, and athletic development activities. Coaches also incorporate non-tennis sports and agility games to promote coordination, teamwork, and overall athletic skills.
We use orange balls which are softer and bounce slower than a traditional yellow tennis ball. This allows kids to react in a timely manner, making it a great environment for beginners.
Camp ScheduleDaily: 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM Snack break: 20 minutes midway through class End-of-week snack treat provided by coaching staff
Coaching StaffCamp instruction is led by Eric Dennis and Lucas Rosenberg, who bring over 40 years of combined playing and coaching experience. They currently operate Apex Court Academy, providing tennis lessons to all ages and experience levels across the peninsula.
