Summer Camp Info is here!

Summer Camp

The camp runs every week Monday to Friday during the school holidays (last day 19th August).

The camp will run from 10 to 3 every day (10-1230 for under 8s). The full day sessions are for those aged 8 years upwards but we will consider some 7 year olds (if they can handle sport all day) so just ask in the email if you want to enquire about that.

If you would like to reserve a place, then please email minitennis@glasgowwestern.co.uk with the following details:

Name
DOB
Medical Condition
Emergency phone number
Requirements eg mornings, full days, weekly etc.

We will endeavour to confirm your place within five days of receiving your email. If you do not hear by then, please re-send your request as sometimes they get lost in cyberspace...

Prices etc are detailed below.

Activities at Camp

A typical day at camp for a 5 - 9 year old goes like this:

10 - arrive and meet in bar
10 - 1030 - warm ups and co-ordination exercises outside
1030 - 1120 - tennis session part one in ability groups
1120 - 1140 - break
1140 - 1230 - tennis session part two
1230 - depart

and for 10 - 14 year old

10 - arrive and meet in bar
10 - 1020 - warm ups
1020 - 1230 - more intense session than above with no break (drinks and snacks taken on court)
1230 - 1 pm lunch and rest
1 - 3 - afternoon activities which include tennis matches, tennis games, rounders, football, fitness and fun.

We have pizza day on Fridays and ALL children are welcome to stay for pizza including the morning children. They need to let the coach know in the morning when they arrive and hand in £3 for this. If morning children are staying for pizza, they can be collected at 1 pm instead of 1230 pm. We also have a water fight on Friday afternoons. The children get very excited about this but we really just stop at 240, let them throw water at each other (and the unsuspecting coaches) and then send them in to get changed. Change of clothes compulsory.

Every Wednesday we have a themed day called WACKY WEDNESDAY.

Wednesday 3rd August - Wildlife Wednesday (dress us as your favourite animal)
Wednesday 10th August - Wacky Colour Day (dress all in one colour or as many as you can!)
Wednesday 17th August - Wild Western Day (explanation to be revealed on the week...)
