Courtside is offering an outdoor summer camp at Rutgers Preparatory School in Somerset New Jersey.
The camp is open to all level players between the ages of 6 and 18. Beginning campers who attend this program will have an opportunity to learn and develop the proper stroke work and mechanics of tennis by first seeing the strokes demonstrated and then using the strokes and having them critiqued and corrected. Then they will have the opportunity to use what they have learned in a game-like situation. Finally the campers will play points, games and sets to allow them to see the full scope of how the strokes can be applied. Intermediate and advanced campers will have the chance to improve their mechanics through many game based drills along with critiques from our staff. The advanced campers will also spend more time working on the tactics of the game and learning where to be when on the court as well as what shot to hit at certain times and situations.
