The Loomis Racquet Academy is a small, intensive, and fun tennis camp on the gorgeous campus of Swarthmore College. Campers will learn about all facets of the game in a structured yet nurturing environment. Instruction is conducted in small groups with the typical ratio being roughly 4-5 students per coach. We will focus on fundamentals, but have an individualized approach so that each camper is challenged and can improve their specific needs.

Day Campers: Check in Monday-Thursday at the courts 8:45 a.m.-9 a.m. Check out 4:00 p.m.

*Lunch included
