A summer to remember!

Ace Tennis Summer 2016

18 different nationalities, seven weeks, two amazing venues, a fabulous coaching team has made 2016 the best Ace Tennis Camps ever! Many fond memories have been made during this past summer, friendships created or renewed. The Ace Tennis team is very proud of all the staff and students that combined to create a wonderful camp for young people from all over the world.

The on court coaching was excellent delivered by our expert coaches with their motivation and passion for the sport of tennis.  The students were engaged and committed to improving regardless of their level.  This was often highlighted in our daily match play sessions.  It was no coincidence at the end of each Ace Tennis Camp week there was always a handful of nominees for the "most improved award". Watching young people develop on the court is a major factor for the staff at Ace Tennis, it is incredibly rewarding to watch someone flourish under our guidance.  Perhaps this is one of the reasons so many of our students return each summer.

Spending part of your summer at Ace Tennis Camps is much more than just the on court coaching.  Who can forget our excursions to London including the Natural History Museum, London Transport Museum, Wimbledon, Covent Garden, Oxford Street, Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle and the Tate Modern.  The students experience a real summer in London while enjoying their favourite sport.  The fun never stopped on campus either with daily football matches, cinema visits, BBQs and the all important "chill time" after a long day of tennis!

International students also participated in the optional Ace Tennis language program, engaging and learning from our expert teachers. The daily language class gave confidence to some students to use their skills in social situations around other students more often. Nothing pleases the staff more than to see so many nationalities and backgrounds blend together with a mutual love of sport.

Ultimately each summer it is the great blend of the Ace Tennis staff, the students and the fabulous venues and their staff that make what we feel is the best camp experience in the UK.  Going the extra mile for every student is our hallmark and will be for as long as we operate.  

A massive thank you from all of us at Ace Tennis Camps to each and every person that made summer 2016 the success it was.  We look forward to the 2017 season and hope many of you will join us once again.

The bookings for Summer 2017 are now open and we suggest you reserve early this year......  

Have a great September!

Until next time.
