Juniors & Kids

Summer Junior Tennis Camps and Summer Advanced Junior Tennis Programs

Our Summer Junior Tennis Camps are directed by John Potter both for the little ones in the Kinder Tennis, ages 4-7, as well as eight years old and above in Beginner/Intermediate Camps.  Summer Junior Team Tennis will  continue to be part of our full summer of tennis for juniors with Kathy Somnavong organizing the teams this year.

We are looking forward to the La Cantera Tennis Academy  again this summer.  It is a three days/week, six hours/day program for highly motivated juniors who want an opportunity to work on playing tennis at the most competitive levels as well as achieving levels of fitness that will help them vie for high sectional rankings and prepare for future college tennis play.  We also have a Pre-Academy Class with Paul Valois.  There is an appropriate level available for every junior player.  Call us to get involved.

If you have questions feel free to call.

Beginner/Intermediate Camps, 8-18 yrs

These camps are designed to give juniors an enjoyable eight days of exposure to tennis while at the same time developing the necessary skills to become a champion.  Juniors will work on all the basic strokes with our professional staff.  Juniors also can expect informative and enjoyable insight into the game with lectures, demonstrations and trivia sessions.  The camp will offer games, competition, refreshments, prizes, awards and t-shirts(students first session only).
