Where Everyone is a Star!
Camp Friendship tennis program is offered to boys and girls ages 8-16. Without forcing a particular style of play, we develop each camper's game based on his or her individual strengths. Our USPTA-certified staff are dedicated to giving your child quality instruction, positive sportsmanship and a lot of fun and excitement on a tennis court. Our four hard surface courts, two ball machines, speed check radars, video and photo equipment are used at all instruction sessions.
