SUMMER JUNIOR TENNIS CAMP
Summer
Camp will begin on
Monday, June 12 and finish on Friday, August 18
Wickertree
Tennis Club is again offering an exciting Summer Camp
program to the Columbus area. We will offer half-day
tennis camps for juniors - and it is available to both
Wickertree members and non-members. The program will
begin the week of June 12, ending the week of August
14. Many of the activities will be held on out new DynaCushion®
indoor courts, so the program can proceed rain or shine.
Our
goal at the camp is to provide all students with quality
tennis instruction so they can enjoy the sport of tennis
for the rest of their lives. The personal interactions
at the camp will also help your child develop social
skills and friendships with other camp members.
During
our summer camp, we will do everything in our power
to improve all aspects of your child's tennis skills
and experience. The Wickertree staff is dedicated to
developing in each child: hand-eye coordination, tennis
fundamentals, team competition, mental toughness, physical
fitness and most important, a positive self-image.
The
professional Wickertree staff offers a unique combination
of structured tennis instruction in a fun environment!
We are committed to providing a program for every individual's
needs. Whether your child is a beginner, intermediate
or advanced player, we guarantee to increase his/her
tennis enjoyment and to continue progress toward reaching
each individual's potential. And we hope we can contribute
to your child's memories of "Camp Wickertree Summer
2006."
