TennisMajors

Whether a beginner, intermediate, or advance level tennis player, our tennis major is designed to take each campers skills to the next level. Campers will have two periods of tennis each day, focusing on proper swing form and mechanics, footwork, match play strategy, and live-ball drills in the morning. In the afternoon, campers will enjoy individual and team instruction sessions, combined with many games designed to compliment the drill work.
