Win Your Next Tennis Match With These 3 Tips

Whether you’re playing tennis competitively as an athlete or casually just because you enjoy the sport and the health benefits that come from it, you all have one thing in common – it’s nice to win a match when you’re playing someone else.

Make Tennis Lessons More Fun with These 4 Ideas

3 Best Tips to Help Tennis Players Master The Art of Lob Shots

With adidas Tennis Camps offering 30 hours of tennis instruction during any given session, there are plenty of opportunities for tennis players to really improve their game – both on and off the court.

With a low camper-to-coach ratio, it’s a lot easier for our coaches to give each camper the attention they deserve when it comes to truly helping them find another level in their game. One of the benefits to having so many [Read More>]

Simple Tweaks That Can Be A Big Game Changer

In many things in life – sports included – it’s the smallest of tweaks and adjustments that ends up making the largest difference in whatever you’re trying to accomplish. Tennis is no different in this respect, and it’s a big reason why the camp directors at our Connecticut Tennis Camps, along with all of our other locations, provide as much individual attention as possible to campers.

Every player is a little bit different and also responds to feedback in various ways.
