the future of tennis
Summerhill is proud to offer many choices when it comes to introducing kids to the sport of tennis. Our Junior Development Program includes different levels for children ages 5 through 17 and provides a structured and fun framework for learning the game.
fall | winter | spring sessions
The cornerstone of our Junior Development program, this is for children from ages 5 – 17 and all skill levels. It is designed to provide players with the most enjoyable experience, as well as the greatest opportunity to reach their full potential, with each level building on the skills developed at prior levels.
These sessions are in 7 to 8 week blocks and are available in 1x, 2x and 3x per week options.
Summer camps
These camps are one week long and we offer multiple sessions throughout the summer. Summer camp classes are focused on beginners of all ages and are intended to introduce kids to the basics of the sport.
Classes are Monday – Friday from 9:30am to 2:00pm.
High performance clinics
These classes will be held on the same weeks as summer camps and are for:
- Elite Champs
- Contenders
- Smashers
- Elite Contenders
All aspects of the game will be covered in these classes, but we will put emphasis on service and service return and developing techniques to increase power, spin and placement.
