This may be your first time interacting with a summer sports camp and it's highly likely that it's your first time with a tennis camp. We want you to be prepared as you pack and plan for your athlete to have a good experience. Here's what your student needs to bring and what you need to know.
WEATHER - Monday looks good. The rest of the week is questionable. If a day is rained out at tennis camp, we will extend to Friday.
WHAT PLAYERS SHOULD WEAR
Shorts
T-shirt (light color since we'll be in the upper 70's by 9am
Hat - Studies have shown that a head covering reduces internal body heat.
Athletic shoes - Avoid the Crocs, Flip Flops, and Sandals which are problematic for movement.
Sunscreen - Even though we will have a couple canopies on court for shade, it will still be 2.5 hours on court.
WHAT PLAYERS SHOULD BRING
Tennis Racquet (if they have one available, if not, we will have multiple)
Water Bottle (we will have coolers with iced bottled water, but bringing their own bigger bottle can help them stay better hydrated.) We will have a water break at least every 30 minutes.
A Snack - We will have a few snacks on court in case a student needs something to eat during play, but bringing a piece of fruit, a small bag of trailmix, or a granola bar is what all of us tennis players do for play/match days.
Hand Towel - A hand towel or golf towel from the bathroom can be very handy as kids hands will get sweaty having so much tennis fun at camp!
A Smile - Since this is a new sport for many students, they may be apprehensive. Help them get their morning off right with a good breakfast and a smile!
$40 In Cash or made out in Check to "WCHS Tennis". All proceeds go straight to the high school tennis team. Please pay on Monday morning when students arrive at 8:30am.
BATHROOM - We have access to the bathrooms at the softball field during our tennis camp. We will escort campers on a bathroom break at 9:45am. We will also escort (in groups of 3 or more) individual tennis camp attendees should they need a pit stop during play.
Parents are welcome to stay during our camp time. Just bring your comfy folding chair and a good book. We have a great awning just above the courts with a great view.
11AM PICKUP
Each day we'll end with a fun group game and activity concluding at 11:00 sharp. Please be ready to pick your child up.
