Get ready to swing into summer as Eden Prairie lays out a series of tennis camps and lessons aiming to keep youth active and connected on the courts. According to a bulletin from Eden Prairie's official website, children as young as four can jump into the sport with a variety of group camps and lessons designed to introduce them to the game and develop their skills.
While kids strut their stuff on the tennis courts, the summer day camps promise a combo of drilling and engaging activities. With age-specific groupings, the program is structured around immersive sessions for youngsters aged 4-11, ensuring that even the little ones get a shot at perfecting their racquet swings alongside developing coordination and game fundamentals—a hit with parents looking to keep their kids on the move.
For those seeking a more family-oriented swing, Eden Prairie also offers the Youth With Adult tennis lessons. Here, the website suggests, families can hit the courts together, encouraging parents and their kids, ages 6-11, to share the joy of tennis and bonding over backhands and volleys.
Teenagers haven't been left out of the game, with tailored sessions for ages 12-17. These beginner and intermediate lessons pave the way for teens to advance their play within a supportive setting, fostering skill development and camaraderie within a supportive and engaging environment for growth.
For the more serious or individualized approach, private tennis lessons are on offer with the flexibility to match. Certified coaches are all set to deliver personalized lessons to enhance techniques and meet the student’s personal goals, making sure progress is the name of the game for both children and adults of all skill levels.
Eden Prairie's commitment to upping their game doesn't end at tennis. A slew of summer programs and classes are up for grabs at the city's recreation department. Those eager to know more can find the full roster and signup details at edenprairie.org/Recreation, where potential tennis aces and their families can learn more and sign up.
