Summer Camp

Summer Camp 2024

The main emphasis throughout the week will be on having lots of fun with plenty of games and competitions. As always, the course will be run by fully qualified LTA & RPT coaches and assistants which will ensure that all participants are taught to the highest standard. The course aims to improve ball skills and stroke techniques and will cater for all ability levels.

Players will be grouped depending on age and experience into coaching groups. Players from each coaching group will be put into “houses” and earn points for their “house” each day. Members of the winning house will receive a prize at the end of the week!

  • Week 1: 29th July to 2nd August
  • Week 2: 5th August to 9th August
  • Week 3: 12th August to 16th August
  • Week 4: 19th August to 23rd August
