Who is the camp for?

Elementary and middle schoolers. The program is built around beginners, but more experienced players are welcome. Campers are grouped by age and skill so everyone gets drills at the right level.

What should my camper bring each day?

We suggest a t-shirt and shorts, plus sneakers (court shoes or running shoes are perfect), a refillable water bottle, a small towel, and a packed lunch — or money to buy lunch from Gino's Pizza next door. The club has a fridge campers can use. All paddles, balls, and tables are provided.

Campers are welcome to bring their own paddle if they have one.

What dates does camp run?

Camp runs Monday through Friday, June 29 through August 21, 2026. Eight total weeks. Daily hours are 8am to 5pm, with drop-off from 8 to 9am and pickup from 4 to 5pm.

How much does it cost?

$350 per week, per camper. Minimum 2 weeks. No registration fee, no equipment fee.

How do I pay?

After you submit the online registration, we'll email you within 24 hours with payment instructions. We accept Venmo, Zelle, check, and cash.

Is lunch provided?

No. Campers bring their own lunch and snacks, or bring money to buy lunch from Gino's Pizza next door. There's a 90-minute lunch break (12:00 to 1:30pm) with supervised downtime, board games, and casual play.

What's the daily schedule like?

Drop-off 8–9 am, coaching and drills until lunch at 12, lunch and downtime until 1:30, match skills and tournament play until 4, pickup window 4–5 pm. See the full schedule on the home page.

How big are the groups?

We cap each week to keep coach-to-camper ratios small. Campers are split into age- and skill-based groups so coaching stays personal.

What if my camper has never played?

Perfect, that's exactly who the camp is built for. Every camper starts with grip, stance, and basic strokes. By the end of week one, most beginners are sustaining rallies and playing match points.

What's your cancellation / refund policy?

Full refund if you cancel at least 14 days before your camper's first registered week. 50% refund within 14 days. No refunds once a week has begun, except for documented medical reasons (we'll work with you).

What if my camper has allergies or a medical condition?

Use the medical notes field on the registration form to tell us about allergies, conditions, or medications. We'll follow up directly with any questions before camp begins.
