SCHOOL HOLIDAY TENNIS CAMPS
Yarra Tennis Coaching runs fun, action-packed junior school holiday tennis camps during every school holiday period. These camps provide intensive coaching to accelerate learning and improvement for a variety of ages and standards. And, most importantl, they're fun!
​
Our tennis camps focus on developing the essential tennis skills in a fun, challenging and progressive fashion. Players participate in a variety of drills and games that involve rallying, forehands, backhands, serves and volley, and move onto putting these skills together to play competitively in singles and doubles.
​
Players are also divided into groups based on age and level of experience. The 2.5 hour sessions combine a variety of footwork, movement and preparation drills with concentrated (cooperative and competitive) singles and doubles rallying between players of a similar standard.
There is a limit of 30 players per session per day to maximise individual attention and improvement.

TENNIS CAMP FAQ's
Are tennis camps suitable for beginners?
Tennis camps provide an intensive and fun introduction to tennis for children of all ages and standards, including those that have never played before. The 2.5 hour sessions provide plenty of tennis skill development which helps players develop confidence in the sport.
What does my child need to bring?
We supply all racquets and equipment each day for our tennis camps, so just a drinkbottle if needed or a hat during Summer are required.
