A hugely enjoyable and successful week’s coaching and tennis was had by all participants at this year’s summer tennis camp in Abbeyleix Tennis Club.
The camp catered for children between the ages of 5-13 years, with coaching sessions lasting three hours each day. The morning session was for 5-8 year olds comprising tennis skills, co-ordination activities and fun games. The afternoon session catered for 9-13 year olds with lots of tennis played by all in many different forms.
Run by the Club Coach, Bryan Stewart, each group worked on the skills and techniques of the game. The camp had a different theme each day with daily awards and prizes for participants. Each participant was also awarded an individual certificate at the end of the camp.
The club will continue to run activities throughout the summer including Saturday morning tennis and it’s centenary year celebrations over the August bank holiday weekend. The next term of coaching will take place in September under the guidance of Club Coach Bryan Stewart. Details will appear on www.abbeyleixtennis.com during August.
