    Sign your kids up for summer camps at RCW Athletic Club

    At RCW Athletic Club, lessons in sports become lessons for life. Their passionate pros and coaches pride themselves on teaching technique and tenacity, pace and patience to all levels of players.

     

    This summer, this world-class tennis club is excited to bring two types of junior camps for the summer—with options for kids from age 3 to 18. Sign-ups are open for both the 2023 RCW Summer Tennis Camp and the 2023 RCW Racquet Sports Camp, featuring three of the hottest sports combined into one weeklong camp: Padel, Pickleball, and Tennis.

    A mix between tennis and squash, Padel is the fastest growing racquet sport in the world, and RCW has two brand new courts just in time for summer camps.

     

    RCW has a philosophy of bringing joyfulness and playfulness to all of their junior programs, which builds a foundation for lifelong skills and a lifelong love of the game.

     

    “RCW teaches these life skills through the game of tennis one child at a time.”
    – George Zink, co-owner

     

    Their summer camps are designed to offer a fantastic experience on the court—providing instruction that is catered to each level and age group. Budding athletes will learn skills beyond the sport like communication, problem solving, and teamwork along with the physical skills like agility, balance, and speed. The hands-on coaches at RCW use tennis to plant these seeds of bigger life lessons, teaching the next generation of players to be resourceful, patient, and confident.

    Tennis Camp options include Toddler Camp, Junior Camps, and Elite Camp

    Coaches are well-versed in working with kids of all levels and athletic backgrounds so there are no expectations for what kids should know or be able to do before attending camp. Whether kids are seasoned on the courts or new to picking up a racquet, they are ready to welcome everyone and share the magic that makes this community a place for all.

     

    “We have an exceptional team of coaches that have the experience and expertise to work with kids of all levels and ages. We’re very excited to welcome new and returning players this summer!” – Ben Zink, Tennis Director
