UMBC was once again one of our top camps in 2009 and will surely be a camper favorite again in 2010. This summer Tennis Camp is one of the top summer tennis camps in Maryland.
UMBC’s new Head Men’s & Women’s Tennis Coach Rob Hubbard will direct this adidas Tennis Camp. He has coached privately and at Goucher (Md.) College (2000-05) and the University of Texas-Pan American (UTPA) since 1981.
Coach Hubbard took over the reigns of the UTPA men's and women's tennis program in November of 2005. In 2007-08, Hubbard's third season as head coach at UTPA, the men's tennis team jumped two spots from the previous season to be ranked 12th in the South Central Region for the fifth time in seven seasons. The women's team finished at 17-8 and earned a spot on the 2008 Women's Division I final regional rankings in 15th place.
Rob was a standout for the Pan American University men's tennis program from 1974-78 where he was the top-ranked player on the nationally-ranked Broncs' squad.
Following the 1978 season, Hubbard turned professional and enjoyed three seasons on the ATP Tour where he was ranked in the top-300 in the world and competed in a pair of U.S. Open's during the 1979 and 1980 seasons.
He was a two-time USTA National Champion and was selected to represent the United States at the Italia Cup, which was a 35-and-over Davis Cup competition, during his post-professional playing days. He was also the USPTA Maryland Pro of the Year in 2000.
