Tennis Camp

The Westleigh Recreation Club's Tennis Camp is a fun, upbeat program designed for children age 6 to 15, from beginner to tournament-level players. The players are divided into groups of six or less based on their age and ability.

Our program is run by Ed Tripp, USPTA, who has been the head pro at Westleigh for over 22 years. Ed has his USPTA certification and a Bachelor's degree from Ferris State University, with a major in Professional Tennis Management. He competed on FSU's nationally ranked tennis team as well as on the Junior Davis Cup team in Michigan. He is widely known in this area for his enthusiasm and the knowledge that he brings to the game of tennis. In 2003 Ed Tripp was given, by USTA magazine, the Mid-Atlantic Unsung Hero Award for his contributions to the game of tennis at the grass roots level. Ed has coached several players who have gone on to play for their high school and college tennis teams.

All players are required to bring their own lunch (except on Fridays), a water bottle, sunscreen, towel, and a swimsuit. We do hold camp rain or shine. If players cannot attend a particular day, a make-up can be scheduled with 24 hour advance notice for another week.

All of our instructors are fun, positive, great teachers and have an excellent rapport with children.

Regardless of the package you choose, the camp will include one hour of supervised swim and lunch. All participants will be treated to a pizza party on Friday. This has been affectionately named by the campers as "Fun Friday."
