Mini Tennis Camp***

There will be a Ed Ransom Tennis Mini Camp at Cedar Hill Swim Club Courts on the weeks of June 9th to 12th, 16th -19th and 23rd – 26th.

The camp is for Three Weeks at Cedar Hill Swim Club tennis courts on Cedar Grove Lane in Somerset , N.J. 08873 just past New Brunswick Ave.

This Camp is to accommodate Prep school Students for the first three weeks after school ends since Rutgers Prep Courts will not be available for the Tennis Camp this year.

Franklin High School will be the camp site from June 30th until mid August. Franklin schools will still be in attendance until June 28th.

I had to find an alternate site for the three week mini camp. Both locations are relatively close to Rutgers Prep.

All fees will be the same as the regular Camp.

Program Info

The tennis program is open to all age groups. The two, three, and four week programs are an excellent way to improve your game in all areas as well as meet new tennis partners. Each camper will be evaluated and placed into an instructional group according to his or her ability level. The ultimate way to improve your tennis is to attend a four to twelve day intensive program.

General Information

Any pertinent medical data and an emergency phone number must be provided by all tennis students.

An extra set of tennis clothes is recommended: rigorous workouts and play will have students perspiring.

Pocket money and/or lunch money should be brought by each student.

Fridays will be reserved for rain dates.

The Beginner's Program will teach basic skills including the forehand, backhand, serve, and volley. It will also teach students how to score and play sets.

The Intermediate Program will teach all strokes and strategy including specialty shots such as drop shots, spin and slice strokes, and serves. Intermediate campers will also learn a variation of styles of play.

The Advanced Program will work on drills to improve accuracy and consistency under pressure and utilize training routines for mental and match toughness. The advanced players will learn all stages of training and conditioning for match play.

This will be achieved through various combinations of multipurpose drills which will improve movement, conditioning, stroke form, consistency and accuracy while gradually increasing the level of difficulty as the player becomes more proficient at each step. This training, combined with various forms of match play, entrains sound, consistent strokes and match toughness. Student to instructor ratio is 5 to 1, plus Ed Ransom directing.

Fees

The Fee for One Week All Day Camp (4 days - 8:30 am to 4:00 pm) is $300.00 or $85.00 per day. Increase is due to the location change and higher cost of living for the first time in 19 years

A $100.00 deposit per week per person is required to reserve a space in all camps. Due to the increasing attendance in the last 7 years some sessions will fill more rapidly. Rutgers Prep, which has only five courts and a capacity for twenty five campers, will soon be full. So to guarantee your space we recommend sending in your deposit as soon as you know your schedule.
