PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN TENNIS RACKET!
The camp provides high quality tennis instruction in a fun and nurturing environment. The goal of the camp is to increase tennis skill while having fun and instill a genuine love for the game of tennis. ECC Tennis Camp takes place on the ECC’s air conditioned indoor court and is open to boys and girls grades K-8. Our Tennis Camps focus on building the skills of proper grips, footwork, strokes, volleys, and serves while fostering a love of the game.
Our coaches emphasize understanding of tennis rules and etiquette, and teach tennis skills through skill-appropriate games and exercises. They focus on developing the total player, which builds young athletes’ confidence and passion for the sport.
While no prior tennis experience is necessary, it is helpful. The program is geared towards teaching and honing tennis’ fundamentals while promoting proper behavior on the court and encouraging children to make tennis a lifelong game.
Like all our summer sports camps, we teach good sportsmanship and the importance of fair play. Participation in sports helps build a child’s self-esteem and reinforces positive interaction with adults and other children. Summer camps for kids can be a fantastic way to build healthy bodies, make new friends, and develop lifelong skills.
