We are pleased to offer six sessions of tennis camps this year, two
of which are designated tournament player camp for those players
who have competed at the national, state and sectional level.
Please register early as all weeks completely sold out last year. The
Carolina Tennis School is designed for boys and girls ages 9-17.
Individual instruction is provided by a one-to-five teacher-student
ratio. Normal camp sessions (Non-tournament weeks) focus
primarily on drills and technique with some match play. Applications
are processed on a first-come, first-serve basis, as space is
limited.
Features of all camp sessions include:
• Video analysis of stroke production and technique
• Strategies for singles and doubles play
• Footwork, running and agility drills
• Camp t-shirt and certificate
• Round Robin Tournament
Overnight/Day Options
The overnight option includes three meals daily and an air conditioned
double occupancy room. One roommate can be requested. Occasionally,
space limitations may necessitate three campers sharing a room. The day
option begins at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 5 p.m. Please drop off and pick up
your child in the Indoor Tennis Center Lobby promptly. Lunch is included
in the cost for day campers. The overnight session is $650.00 and the day
camp is $370.00. Campers will reside at Granville Towers once again this summer. Thisfacility, located centrally on Franklin Street, is a popular off-campus residence for UNC students during the academic year. Campers will eat meals on-site at Granville's all-you-can eat dining room.
Family and friends are encouraged to attend our final camp session on
the last day of camp(approximately 3:30 pm) at the Tennis Center. Special
awards recognizing outstanding campers will also be presented. Parents arealso welcome to watch their child play at any time during the week.
Tournament Player Camp
We have two weeks of tournament camp. These weeks are heavily
oriented toward match play. Players who are on their high school tennis
teams or have a current USTA state or sectional ranking make up the
majority of the enrollment. This camp emphasizes the tactical and
strategical side of tennis and focuses on singles and doubles matchplay. In
addition, there will be a more intense fitness component where our world class trainers will work to improve footwork, movement, and flexibility. Each
camper will have their play videotaped and analyzed.
