Duke Tennis Camp Special Features
True Blue Camp, Available all Sessions
Our True Blue camps have proven to be quite popular and fill up quickly, so
register early! These camp sessions are designed for the player looking for a
physical and mental challenge beyond the typical advanced group.
Coach Ashworth and Coach Lapidus utilize many elements
of their Duke team training regime with these students. Players preparing for
tournament play will find these camp sessions ideal. Focus is on conditioning,
strategy, mental toughness, match preparation and doubles tactics. Extensive
drilling to promote foot and racket speed, hand/eye coordination and reflex
time will also be incorporated.
The True Blue group is only a portion of the regular camp format. Campers not in the True Blue group will be taught as in any other session.
Lectures
Coach Lapidus and Coach Ashworth meet with campers periodically throughout the week to give lectures on topics including mental toughness, strategy and match preparation.
