Why attend the All-American Tennis Camps

We know that you have several options when it comes to picking a top tennis camp. However, we at the All-American Tennis Camp feel that we offer several benefits that make our camp one of the top camps available. Included in these are:

1. Outstanding Staff:
The key to any instructional tennis camp in the quality of instruction. We have hand picked our staff based on their abilities to instruct and relate to kids ages 8-18. There are many camps out there that have " part-time coaches" or "outstanding players" however the real question is, can these people teach the game, and more importantly can they relate and work with young kids. David Schilling, director of the All-American Tennis Camps has more than 20 years experience working and directing tennis camps, and he carefully hires a good mix of coaches based on their abilities to teach the game. In addition, it is our goal to see to it that not only do the students have a top flight learning environment, but that they are able to have a enjoyable and fun camp experience as a whole. We want kids to continue to enjoy and love the game, as their skills progress.

2. Small Instructional Environment
Many tennis camps are merely "game camps" or "recruiting camps", very little instruction goes on and skill development and stroke production is a secondary (or lower) concern. At the All-American Tennis Camp, our first priority is instruction. For this, we offer one of the best Coach to camper ratios in the country. A limited ration of 4.5 campers per coach (4.5:1), we can ensure each student a great deal of individual attention. This means a more personalized experience, thus quicker and more thorough learning.

3. Value
One of the hallmarks of the Premier Sports Camps and the All-American Tennis Camp is value for the dollar. We make every effort to keep our fees as low as possible. In fact, at $580 per week (2008), we are the lowest priced residential tennis camp in Ohio. In some cases we are more than $200 less per week than our competitors.

4. Experience
With more than 20 years experience in the tennis camp industry, we understand what it takes to offer a good blend between competition, instruction, and fun. We supervise the kids 24 hours a day and it is our goal to see that each student enjoys themselves off the courts, while at the same time learning on the courts.

5. Outstanding facilities
The College of Wooster is considered the finest sports camp environment in the state of Ohio. This beautiful location, in northeast Ohio, offers the safety of a small town setting, coupled with a picturesque campus. In addition, the facilities are top notch. The tennis courts are regarded as some of the most well kept courts in the state. The camp setup is outstanding. A $5 million overhaul to the food service offers our kids more choices and better quality food than just about anywhere. Campus dorms are well kept and set up ideally for a camp setting. There is an outstanding student union which hosts the campus bookstore, two dining options, post office, computer labs, and a game room. The courts, the food hall, the dorms, the student union, game room, post office and bookstore are all within 500 yards of each other.

6. Safety
A small town setting helps create a safe and camper friendly experience. Our staff are responsible for the kids 24 hours a day and we place a premium on camper safety. In addition to our staff members, there is a full time summer security staff at the College of Wooster that is responsible for the various camps that the school hosts. Finally, there is also a the normal full time College of Wooster security force on duty at all times. A full-time certified trainer is on duty throughout each weekly session. Additionally, the medical facilities of the Wooster Community Hospital are within a mile of the College campus in case of emergency.
