WAYNESBURG – The Greene County Department of Recreation next month will offer an all-ages week-long tennis camp at the county’s tennis courts at 900 Rolling Meadows Road in Waynesburg.
The tennis camp will run from July 13 through July 17. Instruction sessions are 8:30 to 9:45 a.m. for children ages 7 to 10, and 10 to 11:30 a.m. for ages 11 and older.
The camp costs $50 and includes a T-shirt.
The deadline to register for the camp is July 8.
Tennis skills such as serving, forehand, backhand and volleying will be taught throughout the week, and campers will also learn how to play in singles and doubles competition.
Camp instructors will be Ron Headlee, Jessica Bazzoli and John Buchanan, all certified United States Tennis Association instructors. All three have played tennis competitively for years and have often worked with young children. Buchanan is currently in charge of the Greene County tennis league.
Headlee will also be available this summer for all-ages private tennis lessons.
The tennis camp is sponsored by the Greene County Commissioners and the Department of Recreation. For more information, or to register for the tennis camp, call 724-852-5323, or Headlee at 724-984-2953.
