ESY TRANSPORTATION Afternoon camps compliment the MCPS Extended School Year (ESY) schedule. These camps are primarily in the central Rockville area.

Parents must arrange ESY transportation through the homeroom teacher at the IEP meeting. MCPS buses will transport students from the ESY to MCR camps; parents must then pick up campers at the end of camp. If arranging ESY transport to camp, please choose an afternoon camp, as the full day camps may not be on-site to receive campers due to scheduled swim and field trips.

Totally Tennis

Totally Tennis Camp

Take your game to the next level while making new friends in this fun, week-long (and air-conditioned) camp for kids ages 8 to 14. Campers will be divided by age and experience. Younger campers and beginners will enjoy games-based activities that teach the fundamentals: eye-hand coordination, movement, and basic tennis strokes plus parts of the court, scorekeeping, and etiquette. Older and more experienced players will be grouped to ensure they get a good challenge during drills and point play with peers while working to improve technique, consistency, and competitive strategy. There will be plenty of time for warm-ups, cardio, and cool down throughout the day, along with breaks for snacks and lunch plus some off-court fun.

Totally Tennis campers will enjoy a positive learning environment that not only builds tennis skills, but also fosters teamwork, self-confidence, and sportsmanship. Fridays at Totally Tennis will finish with a mini tournament featuring match play and large group games adapted for all ages and levels. Sneakers and comfortable clothing are a must. If you need to borrow a racquet, we are happy to loan you one. Please bring a non-perishable lunch (peanut free due to allergies), a refillable water bottle, and snacks to last for a full day of camp.
