Rally, practice, and play matches with coaching in this 2-week tennis camp for high school students in Summer Discovery’s UCLA program.
Camp Description
A good rally makes you want to play another. Find new hitting partners and spend two hours a day serving, rallying, and playing matches, with coaches helping you along the way.
In this camp you will work on forehands, backhands, serves, and volleys, then bring them into point play. Coaches offer tips between points, so you can make an adjustment and try it in the next rally. Groups are matched by ability to keep the play challenging and enjoyable.
Practice placing a serve, coming to the net, and covering the court with a doubles partner. Footwork, agility, and conditioning drills keep you moving, while games give you plenty of chances to choose a shot and see what happens. Whether you’re working toward a steadier backhand or enjoying a close match, camp makes room for both practice and play.
This 2-week camp for high school students is part of Summer Discovery’s UCLA program in Los Angeles, California. Residential and commuter students are welcome. Separate boys’ and girls’ sessions may be offered depending on enrollment.

Why Tennis Camp
More balls hit, more chances to try a shot, and a coach there to help. Camp gives you time to focus on a stroke and then enjoy the challenge of using it in a match.
New hitting partners bring variety to every session. Spend an active part of your summer sharing rallies, playing points, and enjoying tennis with other players who want to be on court.
Who Should Attend?
For students who have completed 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade.
Love a long rally or a close match? Bring that enthusiasm to a camp with regular coaching and new hitting partners. School, club, lesson, and recreational players are grouped by ability. You should already be able to keep a ball in play; this camp suits players with some experience better than beginners learning the strokes.

Your Summer at UCLA
UCLA gives high-school students the opportunity to explore an academic interest while experiencing university life in Los Angeles, a city where entertainment, technology, business, science, and culture constantly intersect. The campus has its own community and rhythm while connecting students to a wider environment built around creativity and new ideas.
Students learn alongside peers, navigate a large campus, and gain independence through everyday choices and responsibilities. Time outside class expands the experience through friendships, campus life, and opportunities to notice which subjects and settings hold their attention. For families, UCLA offers a valuable combination of substantive academics, personal growth, and clearer direction about what a student may want to study, experience more deeply, or pursue next.
