Are you seeking a way to get your child active this summer? Has your child shown an interest in tennis, but you don’t know where to enroll them? Are you curious about why tennis is such a popular sport for kids to develop a healthy, active lifestyle? You’ve come to the right place for the answers you’re looking for! Here’s why tennis is a great sport for kids, and why our tennis camp is the right place for your child this summer.

Physical Fitness

Perhaps the most obvious reason why tennis summer camp is a great option for your kids this summer is because it provides exercise. If you are a parent who wants your child to have a healthy, active lifestyle and learn a skill that will help them grow, tennis camp is a great option. It also helps get your kids off the video games and television and outside to spend time with other kids their age. Tennis involves sprinting in short bursts, changing direction with accuracy and speed, and much more. After a summer playing this sport, your child will be in terrific shape.

Confidence, Self-Esteem, and Independence

Summer tennis camp for kids is a great place for them to improve their confidence, self-esteem, and independence. Through tennis, they learn to take risks and tackle challenges with passion and determination. Being away from home during most of the week also helps them to get comfortable being away from their comfort zone and learning how to be a part of a new community of peers.

Path to College

If your child aspires to be a professional athlete someday, or simply wants to get involved with college sports, now is the best time to begin. Participating in junior athletics can help your child gain a scholarship to college and pave the way for their long-term success. Although this should not be the only motivation to get involved in the sport, it is a great benefit of staying active in a dedicated way through sports.

Lifelong Sport

Some sports, like golf, are life-long hobbies that continue from childhood into adulthood. Tennis courts are available in many public places and are often included as amenities of condominiums and retirement communities. Choosing a sport like tennis increases the chances that your child will grow up with a sport they love, and stay fit throughout their life.

Finding a Passion for the Game

The earlier you get your child involved in sports, the greater the chances they will gain a passion for the game. Learning early on helps them to quickly gain confidence in their abilities and seeing themselves succeed can help drive their passion to keep playing. The camp environment is also encouraging and engaging. Our kids’ tennis camp offers technical training, drills, games, competitions, and more, all in a fun, motivating, and healthy environment.
