With a coaching staff comprised of former elite collegiate players as well as touring professionals,Rice Tennis Camps offers tennis lessons for serious junior tennis players, as well as clinics for beginners and intemediate-level players. The advanced level training - for "Champs" and "Super Champs" - is ongoing through the school year, and offers personal instruction. Beginner and

intermediate level clinics, for kids ages five to 16, are broken up into two semesters. Players are grouped by skill level and age, with small classes maintaining a ratio of one coach to no more than four to six players. Rice Tennis Camps also offers winter and summer camps for all levels.

These weekly classes have been held at Rice University for almost 10 years and have been very popular. They are geared towards the beginner and intermediate level players. Players are put into small groups with kids of their own level (and age). This class is ideal for recreational players who want to learn the game and enjoy it. In addition, it is designed for those who are interested in becoming more competitive and who may be looking to enter tournaments or play for their school teams. These sessions also provide your kids with an ideal opportunity to keep up their tennis throughout the year. Kids aged 5-16 are welcome. The class sizes are small to ensure high quality instruction, with a ratio of 1 coach to no more than 4-6 players. Spots are given on a first come, first served basis and the numbers are limited to 12 per session.
