Camp Weekly Curriculum:

Monday – Rallying Skills
We’ll start with the basics of solid baseline play—depth, consistency, directional changes, movement, and building smart margins into rallies.

Tuesday – Defending Skills
Handling tough situations: defending from the corners, using slice effectively, hitting passing shots, approaching off low balls, and dealing with fast-paced shots.

Wednesday – Doubles Day
A mid-week reset with a focus on serve, return, volleying, positioning, and teamwork—less physically demanding but still productive.

Thursday – Attacking Skills
Taking control of points: stepping in on short balls, using width to open up the court, attacking with forehands, drop shots, swing volleys, and finishing at the net.

Friday – Serve & Return Focus
Since kids are usually a bit more tired by the end of the week, we’ll keep it fun with lots of serve & return reps and point play—often in team-based formats.

Of course, no day is just about one skill. I’m a big believer in a game-based approach—we’ll work on a skill, then put it into a live-play situation where players have to problem-solve and make decisions under pressure. And serve & return won’t just be on Fridays; it’s built into every day.

Excited to get this going!

Curating the summer camp curriculum is starting...

We want to make sure that our junior players have fun but also learn a lot during their weeks with us this summer.

From mental tools to use under pressure, to tactical philosophies that they can build their game around. Not to mention the KPI that our fitness coach, Martin is going to be measuring throughout the summer.

Super excited to get more time with our players!!!
