Judy Murray to host new tennis camps at The Campus


 

Britain’s former Fed Cup Captain to host August masterclass tennis camps at Quinta do Lago in Portugal

 

The Campus, Europe’s newest five-star multi-sport and wellness hub at Quinta do Lago in southern Portugal, is preparing to welcome Judy Murray, Britain’s former Fed Cup captain and mother of Grand Slam champions Andy and Jamie, back to the Algarve for another batch of adult and junior coaching sessions and bookings are now being taken HERE for the camps from 19-23 August 2019

Judy will join a team of coaches for a fun and action-packed tennis coaching camp at The Campus during the Summer school holidays from 19-23 August.

 

The camps will focus on grass-roots coaching and development, making tennis fun for juniors of all abilities as they learn skills from one of the most respected coaches and “tennis mums” in the game. Judy will encourage youngsters to get active in the magnificent surrounds of The Campus, Europe’s newest multi-sport and wellness hub.

“These are the same skills that I taught Jamie and Andy growing up,” Judy said. “We aim to develop the skills that are needed for tennis because it is a complex sport with a lot of movement. Then we look at learning how to play the game with winning and losing elements to it and how to compete, with recreational competition as part of the programme. It is all about helping our players to improve at whatever level they are at and whatever level they can aspire to get to.”

The Campus is one of Europe’s newest state-of-the-art multi- sports venues, created for elite athletes, teams and families. It is already becoming popular with Premier League football and rugby teams, Olympic and Para-Olympic squads, performance athletes and coaches taking advantage of the perfect training climate and using The Campus as their winter training base.

The recently opened High Performance Centre has cemented The Campus’ reputation as the outstanding location for holidaymakers looking for the ultimate sporting break, with dance classes, yoga, swimming and state-of-the-art saunas, steam rooms and wellness areas adding to the appeal.

All visitors will experience world-class tennis and padel courts, a wonderful cycling centre led by Paralympic gold medallist Mark Rohan, as well as a top-class swimming facility and a wellness section of the High Performance Centre that offers all visitors the chance to unwind a er an exhausting work-out.
