About the Camp
Entering its 20th summer, the Bard College Tennis Camp is designed to provide technique and skill instruction in a fun atmosphere. All campers will train under the supervision of our camp staff who are experienced in teaching this lifetime sport.  Each participant will be given training based upon their level of expertise and skill. Children of all levels are invited to join our camps for a great experience.

Daily Activities
