Nike Total Tennis Camp
The Nike Total Tennis Camp programme is most suited to players who are used to playing a lot of sport. We have different camp venues for different playing levels but across all the camps, players need to be quite fit to get the most out of the Total Tennis programme. We constantly monitor the welfare and energy levels of the kids, however the schedule is intensive with around 6 hours of training each day. Players do not need to be fluent in English to take the Total Tennis programme. Our coaches are experienced in coaching players who have lower levels of English, and you will find players improve their English on this programme too because all the camp’s activities are delivered in English.
Nike Tennis & English Camp
Taking English alongside tennis can be a great option for players who have English as a second language, and those looking for a less intensive tennis experience. Splitting the day between tennis and English lessons, our professional teachers make lessons fun, interactive and challenging for students of every level. Lessons revolve around the subjects of sport and tennis, engaging the class in a topic they are passionate about.

COACHING
Bradfield College offers advanced players a fun but challenging training programme simulating an elite tennis environment. Developing players at Lancing College improve their game with demonstration, practice and feedback. Players are assessed and grouped by ability on the first day so coaches can customise the training programme to maximise individual skills progression.
Advanced players are challenged technically, tactically and physically. Developing players learn to master grip, spin, shot selection and movement. The experienced coaching team includes former tournament professionals who use challenges and short-set matches alongside fitness and conditioning drills to create a fun, competitive and progression-driven camp.
Workshops on fitness, nutrition and hydration, physiology and psychology and match tactics and match preparation support on-court training.
RESULTS
Players build confidence and ability. They leave equipped with the skills and insight to continue their development as a tennis player long after the camp has finished, elevating their game to the next level. Each player receives a personal coaching report and completion certificate to take home.
