Get Your Kids in the Game with Summer Tennis Camps
 Does your child want to learn the game of tennis, or expand on his/her skills? Summer Tennis Camp is the perfect opportunity for beginners to learn the basic strokes, general rules and proper tennis etiquette and also allows more experienced participants to get into advanced drills and playing situations. Camp is open to youth ages 5-17 and offers a fun, relaxed atmosphere.
Most camps run Monday through Friday from either 9:00 am to noon or 1:00 to 4:00 pm. Outdoor camps are offered at Owl Creek Tennis Center, Bayville Farms Park and at Kempsville Recreation Center. Owl Creek also offers indoor camps in the climate controlled bubble for those wishing to beat the heat! Camps range from $96 to $155 and registration is available online through EZreg. Space is limited, so register early! |
