CAMP, CANCELLATION AND REGISTRATION POLICIES
Camper Placement
Age/grade levels are established for most camps and clinics. Please note that age/grade overlap exists in some camps and clinics to account for varying ability in student-athletes.
Camp descriptions offer guidelines to assist you in selecting the appropriate camp for your student-athlete.
The use of multiple courts and a high coach-to-camper ratio enables us to address the individual training needs and varied skill levels of the student-athletes at our camps. We will divide groups as appropriate in order to deliver effective overall training.
Registration/Payment
Many camps and clinics have minimum and maximum enrollments. Please apply early.
Applicants will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Registration and full payment is required to guarantee placement in camp.
Online registration through our registration module is REQUIRED and includes the digital completion of reading, comprehending and releasing us of any liability by agreeing and checking off the box representing our Medical and Liability Waiver.
By completing the registration, you agree and commit to the terms, policies and financial obligation.
An automatic confirmation is sent for each camp/clinic registration upon completion of registration. Please email our office at ritz@erstennis.com if you suspect that your child(ren)'s registration was not completed properly or did not receive a confirmation email.
Cancellation Policy
We reserve the right to cancel any camp or clinic which does not meet the minimum registration requirements at our discretion. We do our best to accomodate our clients, but will cancel camps when our minimum enrollment is not met. You will be notified by e-mail should a cancellation be necessary. For camps cancelled by Elite Racquet Sports, you will receive a full refund.
