Can the single supplement be removed after booking?
The single supplement can be removed from your booking but only if your child decides to share a room with someone.
Can my child share a room with someone who they don't know?
We don’t offer the option to share a room with someone you don’t already know.
How do I know what tennis standard to input for my child?
One of our biggest challenges is making sure everyone is matched up to someone of a similar standard. Here’s a little more information:
Your child will Play Up & Play Down – There will be times during the Junior Tennis Camp where your child will ‘Play Up a level’ (maybe even against the coaches) and also times where they’ll ‘Play Down a Level’. We try to make this as even as possible.
Tennis Standards – Please visit this page to see our self rating guide.
Changing Groups – Please never be afraid to speak to your host about changing groups if you feel your child is being over/under challenged.

What is the ratio of coaches to players?

Are the camps safe and supervised?
Yes, absolutely! Safety is our top priority. All camps are fully supervised by trained staff, and we adhere to strict safety protocols. Coaches and staff are background-checked and first aid certified.
Are meals provided?
Yes, all meals are provided and snacks throughout the day to keep the children energised.
How can I book a Junior Tennis Camp?
Booking is easy! Visit our webpage here, select the camp dates that work best for you, and complete the registration form. You’ll receive a confirmation and further details about the camp.
Are flights included?
Flights are not included in our package. However, both the tennis programme and accommodation are included, and you can add airport transfers for an additional cost.
Are airport transfers included?
They are not included within our base package, but can be added upon booking. You can read more about Airport Transfers here.
What is the Single Occupancy Supplement?
The Single Occupancy Supplement needs to be added to your booking if your child is staying in a room on their own.
a) Why do I have to pay the Single Occupancy Supplement? Our pricing is based on 2 sharing a room and all prices displayed on our website are ‘Per Person.’
b) Can someone else share my room if I’ve paid for the Single Occupancy of it? No. We are charged different rates for the number of people in the room. A second person must pay either the full price or the non-playing price.
c) Do you make any margin on the Single Occupancy Supplement? No, we actually even pass any early booking discount we get with hotels to our guests. We do our best to negotiate the best prices possible for Single Occupancy as we appreciate this is a prohibitive booking factor.
Am I financially protected?
Yes, your holiday is protected through the Package Travel Regulations if your booking has more than 1 part – for example: Accommodation & Tennis.
How do I apply my discount code?
You can only use 1 Discount Code per Tennis Holiday.
