Christmas Camp 2021 at SJTA

A big thank you to our coaches Javier Arias and Kayla Vaughan putting on some extra tennis for our green ball and yellow ball tennis players over the holiday break! This camp was a 3 day camp in which our experienced green ball/yellow ball players committed to 6 hours of footwork, drills, skills and match play to keep up their skills on the tennis courts! It was with beautiful Florida weather that this could be a great success with our fabulous tennis pros.
