Tiny Tots
Begin your kids' love of tennis early with our Tiny Tots program! These 45 minute classes are the perfect length for the attention span of young kids, and both help improve their hand-eye coordination and begin teaching them the basics of tennis. Basic strokes, coordination, and fun games are the focus of this class.
Month long classes run September through May/June. During the summer months, we offer week-long summer camps. Find more details on summer camps below!

Tennis Summer Camps
When school's out, MRC junior tennis programs move from monthly classes to week-long summer camps. Held outdoors on the Camden Regional High School tennis courts, these camps are a great way to keep your kids active during the summer.
All camp participants must bring a water bottle, a snack, and sunscreen. Campers should come dressed in non-marking sneakers and clothes to be active in. Kids are welcome to bring their own tennis rackets if they own one, otherwise MRC will provide one for them to use during the camp session.
Summer Camps are available for kids of all ages and skill levels. View the full 2023 summer schedule to the right!
