Junior Holiday Tennis Camps

Poynder Tennis has been running holiday camps for over 30 years. Many families are now on their second generation of holiday tennis, if not their third!

The tried and tested formula has not changed radically since its inception. The camps last for 4 full days from 11.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m. and are open to boys and girls aged from eight years upwards (slightly younger ages allowed for the full course if they feel up to it). All standards are welcome and we always ensure that we have a reasonable number of coaches to give pupils the attention they need within the group framework. The programme allows for four hours of coaching and competitive play per day. Each day has a different competition format. Pupils bring their own lunch and the breaks are staggered to ensure maximum use of the courts.

Tiny Tennis for 3 year olds (with Mums) and Mini Tennis sessions for 4 to 8 year olds are held for one hour each day within the camp, taking place from 10.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. daily. Again both boys and girls are welcome and the sessions include co-ordination and movement exercises as well as an introduction to the basic technical skills required for mini tennis. Sponge, red felt and orange balls are used as appropriate to the children’s age and mini tennis bats are provided.

Full course attendance is advised but applications are accepted on a reduced number of days providing there is space.
