1 SUMMER CAMP NEWSLETTER JUNE 30-JULY 6, 2013 July 4th Summer Camp week at Evert Tennis Academy provided some positive fireworks both on and off the court. Competitive and technical phases of the game were brought to life and the ETA campers did a great job focusing and working hard! The mental focus this week was self-talk and displaying a positive disposition on the court. Hopefully our students learned that being positive and moving on after each point is really beneficial in order to shift their focus to the next point. We truly hope each and every student enjoyed their Evert Tennis Academy experience. We welcome all of you to return for another great week of ETA Summer Camp!
