ABOUT OUR CAMP

2023 Seahawk Summer Tennis Camp 

The Seahawk Summer Tennis Camps are a dynamic tennis camp with programs for ages 7-18 (boys and girls) and leveled groups for beginner, intermediate, advanced and tournament elite.  Each session is directed by UNCW Head Men's Tennis Coach - Mait Dubois (June Sessions) or UNCW Head Women's Tennis Coach - Hans Olsen (July Sessions).  Our coaching staff will include the UNCW assistant tennis coaches as well as our Seahawk varsity players and local teaching pros.  All of our camps are held at the UNCW Tennis Facility.

Our coaching staff takes each student through a process-oriented approach to tennis development with a focus in footwork, stroke development, technique, tactics/strategy, team building and FUN!  Campers are grouped by age and ability level and the instruction is geared towards their appropriate level.

FOR THE BEGINNER . . .

This camp is designed for students who wish to learn and improve their tennis skills in a fun, activity-based environment.  We would like each of our beginner students to finish camp with a solid base of technique and the fundamentals of the game.  Our coaches use a very positive approach to teaching the sport of tennis.
 

FOR THE INTERMEDIATE. . .

Our intermediate student will be exposed to a progressive training environment.  Each student will receive instruction in stroke development, agility/footwork and point play strategy.  We will develop confidence through helping the intermediate player define their game style and set challenging goals for themselves.  We emphasize the importance having fun on the tennis court at every level.

FOR THE ADVANCED...
The advanced players will receive training in a very process-oriented environment.  We will take each of these players through the same processes that we use with our varsity teams at UNCW.  Areas of emphasis will include mental strength, court movement, shot selection, technique and Fun!  Tactical instruction will emphasize singles strategy as well as doubles strategy.   

FOR THE ELITE. . .

The elite camper will experience the tactical and strategic side of competitive tennis.  Players will develop their skills with live ball drills, dead ball drills, and competitive match play.  In addition, there will be a fitness component where players will be exposed to conditioning drills that improve footwork, movement and flexibility.  This portion of camp will run similar to a college program.  A regional, state, or sectional ranking is preferred for campers to be in the elite group.  This is designed for players aspiring to play college tennis and beyond.
