Want to serve up some summer fun for your kids? Sign them up for a camp that they are sure to love! RDUTennis launched in the DC area just a few summers ago and has since grown into one of the area’s premiere tennis programs for kids, with instruction now offered during aftercare at many local schools along with their seasonal camps.
Once again, tennis camps will be offered for ages 5-14 at American, Catholic, and Trinity Washington Universities throughout the summer. Both full-day and half-day camps will be available at all three locations — and the American University location is the only tennis camp in Northwest DC to run from 8:30am – 5:30pm (and that doesn’t include aftercare).
While tennis is the main focus of camp, kids can enjoy a variety of other activities, too. Campers can participate in soccer, basketball, arts & crafts, and swimming. And for the first time this year, swimming will be offered everyday for full-day campers as well as for half-day participants at the AU location.
Also if you’re still looking for Spring Break activities for your kids, camp is being held April 15-18 at Trinity Washington University — a great opportunity to experience RDUTennis ahead of the summer sessions.
For more camp details, including descriptions, pricing, schedules, and registration, visit the RDUTennis website. Inquiries can also be addressed to Brian Rosenthal at brian@rdutennis.net.

We would love to go! My son’s favorite play is Arthur Ashe. Ashe was the first black player selected to the United States Davis Cup team and the only black man ever to win the singles title at Wimbledon, the US Open, and the Australian Open.
My son is a big tennis fan and budding tennis player. His favorite tennis player is currently our local up and coming star Francis Tiafoe – or Big Foe as we like to call him.
AAAaack! I have been looking at tennis camps for theo! Thanks for this heads-up. (and for the free week: Yvonne Goolagong is my fave, because i’m that old!)
My son likes John Isner. Hopefully this camp can teach my little guy to be 30 inches taller!
My 5 year old daughter JUST starting to learn and we would be so grateful for this opportunity. She likes Serena Williams.
My 4 & 5 yr old have taken one tennis class through DCPR And they loved it. I was sad we could not do this last year because we wanted both boys to go but my youngest was too young but excited about this summer. They don’t really have a favorite player yet but I’m 100% #teamSerena!!!
Hometown hero, Tiafoe!
My daughter would love to go! She is a big fan of the William sisters and Roger Federer💛
We are signing up her younger sibling and I know she would enjoy it too!
