Nestled in the eastern foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains is the
historic campus of Sweet Briar College. Van Der Meer Tennis has been providing
summer tennis camps at the college since 1979, to the enjoyment of participants
throughout the east coast.
Adult Tennis Camps
Van Der Meer’s personally trained, PTR professionals
will cover stroke production with video analysis, supervised matchplay, competitive
drilling and tactical sessions. The clinics are open to all ability levels
and participants are grouped according to ability level. Students can elect
to be housed on campus or choose their own accommodation arrangements.
While staying on campus is not required, most Sweet Briar
camp participants enjoy the nostalgia of "going back to college"
by living on campus for the clinic. Air conditioned single and double rooms
are offered for your comfort. Sweet Briar College also has an on-campus hotel
that provides both room and board packages.
Off-Court Activities
Sweet Briar’s 3300 acre campus includes an indoor
pool, a large gymnasium, mountain biking/hiking trails, and 2 lakes for boating,
fishing and swimming.
