What is a Jamboree?
What is a 10 and Under Tennis TEAM NC Jamboree?
The Charlotte TEAM NC Jamboree is a fun and engaging tennis camp conducted by our area’s best Tennis Professionals. It is the first step in a pilot program for USTA Player Development to identify talent and promote 10 and under tennis growth. Participants will be grouped by skill level and guided through a series of athletic testing, motor skills, on-court instruction, and fun games by our area’s best 10U coaches. This TEAM NC Jamboree is perfect for all kids ages 6 to 10 from those with little tennis training to the more advanced level tournament player. Each player will receive a TEAM NC T-shirt and a special Jamboree commemorative bag tag. At the conclusion of the event, all players are invited to a Pizza Party on site!
Players who participate in the Jamboree have an opportunity to participate in the Charlotte Area Camp on April 12 (T.B.D). Participants from the April Area Camp may be selected to the State Camp (Team NC) scheduled for May 18th at Cary Tennis Park.
