Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
Questions
Answers
What should my child bring
to camp?
Do they need to have their
own racquet?
Each child should bring a hat, water bottle and sunscreen (if full day).
Proper tennis shoes are a must to participate in all activities.
A tennis racquet is required; however, if your child does not have one, we
do have a limited number of used racquets on loan. Head junior racquets
can also be purchased from the Head Pro.
We do provide healthy snacks throughout the day such as fruit and
crackers. Full day campers are to bring their own peanut free lunch. We
encourage drinking water instead of sugary juices and pop.
Any time it rains during the summer you can choose to either leave your
child at the clubhouse for supervised indoor activities or plan other
activities for your child and schedule a make-up session. There are a
number of options for make-ups:
1. For half day campers, if it rains only in the morning, the lessons
are made up in the afternoon that day or another day. If it rains in
the afternoon, the lesson will be moved to the morning camp the
next morning or another day. Students will stay for a full day of
camp.
2. For full day campers, if the entire day is rained out you can
arrange to have a make-up class to replace the rain day during the
following week or another week during the summer.
Make up classes are strongly encouraged so that the students get the full
benefit of the tennis instructions. We are very flexible and will be happy to
accommodate you the best we can.
We are a tennis specific camp; therefore, all activities from the warm up
until the end of camp are geared towards learning tennis fundamentals.
All campers warm up at the beginning by running and stretching.
Depending on the level of play they will do drills and engage in games
geared towards improving their level of play. More advanced students will
play matches and learn strategies on how to construct points.
Early drop off at 7:00 a.m. and late pick up, up to 6:00 p.m. is provided at a
rate of $5.00 per hour. You must arrange drop off and pick up times with
the camp administrator when registering for camp.
Martingrove Tennis Club requires all camp participants to be members of
the club. The junior membership fee is $15.00 and covers the use of the
court during camp and outside of camp activities except for adult program
times. Please check the Martingrove website for further details.
Yes. The camp is considered a physical activity, based on the provincial
bylaws; therefore, receipts will be issued at the end of each tennis season.
