Joel Ross Tennis & Sports Camp is a wonderful summer junior tennis camp at a beautiful venue in Kent, Connecticut. No other tennis camp in the country does it quite like Joel Ross.

For seven weeks each summer our renowned teaching staff under the direction of Joel Ross himself, fine tune each junior campers' skills...topspin on both sides, underspin volleys, slice backhands, kick serves, drop shots, overheads, approach shots, V Attack, mental toughness, how to handle bad calls, & even how to slide on clay.

Practicing is only one aspect of tennis camp life. Another is matches. Our tennis campers play as many as three meaningful matches daily. At Joel Ross Tennis Camp our campers learn how to manage match pressure using 'Inner Game of Tennis' techniques that are taught by Joel himself.

We are the only American Camp Association (ACA) accredited tennis camp at a prep school in the nation. Our tennis campers get daily breaks from the tennis camp regimen during our daily elective periods. Activities like squash, archery, canoeing, kayaking, golf, soccer, basketball, crafts, hiking, chess and more are offered.

The facilities at this tennis camp are unmatched. 

The four indoor courts are surrounded by an additional nine outdoor courts, giving us a nucleus of thirteen courts to conduct our tennis camp.

We have full use of two indoor gymnasiums, which we utilize to the fullest.  Our repertoire of gym activities include fitness, indoor soccer, basketball, kickball, dodgeball, etc.  There are three attached squash courts with viewing gallery.  The olympic sized indoor pool, with two diving boards & basketball hoops, is located in the same building between the two gyms.

One of the beautiful things about Joel Ross Tennis Camp is that all of the facilities are in adjacent/centrally located areas.  Our tennis campers only have to walk a minute to get from the courts to the gym/squash/swimming pool.  Four red clay tennis courts are only a minute walk from there, the dorm is another minute & dining room just another minute too!

Competition & Joel Ross Tennis Camp are one in the same. 

Our tennis campers play one to two ladder matches daily.  Morning groups change regularly, sometimes even daily, as the competition plays out.  Tennis campers have the opportunity to hit with our pros every evening in fifteen minute increments after the evening activity has concluded.  This is called 'hitting'.  There are two week ending tournaments during each session.  Our tennis campers become very 'match tough' after two or four weeks at Joel Ross Tennis Camp.  Our tennis campers learn mental toughness skills for tennis & life from Joel.  Joel describes his proven strategy, the 'V' Attack, in his last talk of each session.

Relaxing Time:

This is a very scheduled environment and our tennis camp is a busy place.  However, there is some relaxing time right after meals.  During this time a tennis camper can enjoy playing video games at one of five stations, ping pong, bumper pool, chess, write a letter to mom, catch up on the news on television, or even take a quick nap in the dorm room.
