Boys and girls off all skill levels are welcome at Elings Park’s Tennis Camp, held at the newly renovated Las Positas Tennis Center. They enjoy match play, tactical and technical drills, work with the ball machine, and more. Half-day sessions are led by the park’s tennis pros (and brothers) Adam and Daniel Webster. Students provide their own racquets.
