University of California at Santa Barbara - Aerial Shot

The University of California at Santa Barbara has it all - perfect weather, the mountains and the beach - all within walking distance of camp. The 26 championship courts are located in close proximity to the gymnasium and fitness center.

The object of the Brady Tennis Camp is to have fun while learning the game of tennis. The Bradys feel the experience one gains with the enjoyment of tennis will last a lifetime. Personal attention is a high priority at Brady Tennis Camp. The goal is to send each camper home with a new enthusiasm for tennis and a better understanding of their game. All levels are represented: Novice, Satellite, Open, and High School players are grouped in levels of similar ability for instruction and match play. Instruction and drills will be tailored to meet the needs of every ability level. A written evaluation will be given to each camper at the conclusion of camp.

"I'm an avid tennis player who enjoys both the competitive spirit and also the camaraderie of the game, which is why I enjoy the Brady Camps so much. I've been to a dozen Brady Camps and keep coming back for more, because I know I can always learn new things and meet new people. They offer the perfect blend of professional instruction, challenging workouts, and a fun & friendly atmosphere that encourages players to enjoy themselves while fine-tuning their game. My game has improved and I've made a lot of new friends - I'm a Brady Camp fan for life!"
