2025 Hard Copy Summer Camp Registration
FOR THE BEGINNER AND THE ADVANCED BEGINNER:
Both the beginner and advanced beginner will spend considerable time reviewing and practicing basic strokes, hand/eye coordination, drills, racquet control, balance, foot drills, production and strategy, as steady and consistent improvement requires a comprehensive knowledge of these basics. Games, drills and match play will be introduced to utilize these basic skills.
FOR THE INTERMEDIATE PLAYER:
Intermediate players will devote most of their lesson time to correcting strokes and foot work so that shots become more effective. You'll see an improvement in your serve and net play, as well as ball control, and your consistency at the baseline will improve. Points played out will be utilized to strengthen these skills.
FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL/BEGINNING TOURNAMENT PLAYER:
Lessons for high school or beginning tournament players will emphasize the match play skills you'll need to advance on your team or to improve your ranking. You'll accomplish this by refining the production of your strokes, foot work and improving your conditioning. Steve will arrange match play with other players at your level to further enhance the benefits of your lessons.
