Junior Programs

QUICKSTART (Ages 4-10 years old)
This revolutionary program makes learning tennis fun. We use USTA-approved foam balls, mini-nets and age level-appropriate drills. In fun and friendly one hour sessions, we offer skill-building activities to develop early muscle memory. You can expect your child to realize significant improvement in the areas of eye-hand coordination, footwork proficiency, and basic stroke movements.
QuickStart Schedule: Time/Day: Tue. 4-5pm & 5-6pm / Fri. 4-5pm & 5-6pm

SPECIALIZED JUNIOR PROGRAM
The Specialized Junior Program is a comprehensive program for juniors of all ages who want to learn the sport of tennis in an exciting, progressive and structured setting. Programs are tailored to each student’s  level and goal. Advancing players can progress to the Performance Tennis Program.

PERFORMANCE TENNIS PROGRAM
Our Tournament Training Program uses a complete cross training approach for the serious junior player, and includes practice sessions, workouts for speed, endurance and strength, proper nutrition and rest, sport psychology and match preparation, match play and tournament selection. We help select the appropriate tournaments, and can also help the more serious and accomplished players find the right college. For a nominal fee, our coaches will accompany juniors to tournaments.

HOLIDAY JUNIOR CAMP
Holiday Camps are held from Sunday, December 18 to Sunday, January 1. Regular Programs will be suspended during this Junior Camp. Designed to continue previous junior programs, these camps offer extensive time on the courts in active competition.

TOURNAMENT  TRAVEL TEAM
Members of  the travel team participate in actual tournament play. Coaches accompany players to tournaments and chart their performance. The chart includes every aspect of the match, from unforced errors to first and second serve percentages. The travel team usually plays during the weekends. Contact Ajay Kumar for rates and more details.

ADVANTAGE SUMMER TENNIS CAMP
New York Tennis offers two Advantage summer camps: The Junior Tennis Camp and the Sea and Sports Camp, and we frequently customize programs to offer campers the benefits of both programs. Summer outdoor tennis is a wonderful opportunity for young tennis players to grow and to have fun and excitement. See Ajay Kumar for more information.

THE ADVANTAGE SEA & SPORTS CAMP
The Advantage Sea and Sports Camp is a fabulous place for young children and teens to learn, grow and have fun. Now in our third year, we use the facilities of the New York Tennis Club and SUNY Maritime, which are 2 minutes apart.  No other camp in the metro area offers the range of activities in such a beautiful and convenient location. Our program includes sailing and boating, tennis, swimming, basketball, soccer, softball, and other fun indoor and outdoor games and sports. See Paul Fontana for more information.
