Beyond Camps / Formerly The Michael Filipek Tennis & Sports Academy at Avon Old Farms School
Avon Old Farms School
Avon, CT
Overview
Beyond Camps (formerly known as Michael Filipek Tennis and Sports Academy) will hold its Day and Overnight Camps at Avon Old Farms School this summer. Located just outside of Hartford, CT, this is the perfect site for an adidas Tennis Camp.
In addition to tennis training campers will be participating in other racquet sports and other sports and activities both indoor and outdoor.
Camp is open to all ages and ability levels. We assess each camper's ability during the first session of camp and make sure they are grouped according to their age and abilities so this way we can tailor the drills, games, and match-play to fit their individual needs.

Ronnie J. - Camper The coaches were awesome at the adidas Tennis Camp at Avon Old Farms School. Coach Filipek had collegiate players that we got to compete against during beat the pro. It was a great challenge and look forward to returning to camp.
Heather H. - Mother The director had such a fun and energetic staff. The kids were never bored and looked forward to going everyday!
Jerry R. - Father Great camp with a very low camper to coach ratio. Seemed like everyone was getting personal attention when it came to their strokes.
