Hamptons Community Tennis Academy offers affordable programs for kids and adults

The Hamptons Community Tennis Academy is serving up affordable, community-focused tennis programming on eastern Long Island, expanding options for players of all ages in Hampton Bays and beyond. The academy’s offerings include junior camps, a tournament team, adult clinics, weekly Fun Fridays and a calendar of tournaments and events, plus lessons, stringing services and a small on-site store.

Located at 72 Ponquogue Ave, Hampton Bays, the academy positions itself as a local hub for families, weekend players and organizers looking to broaden access to the sport. Programming is designed to be accessible and practical: junior camps and development pathways give younger players regular court time, while adult clinics and open events create structured opportunities for seasonal residents and year-round locals to get back into the swing of things.

For parents and players, the practical value is clear. The academy centralizes instruction, team play and match opportunities in one place, which simplifies scheduling and reduces the logistical hurdles that often keep new players off the court. Lessons and stringing services mean players can get individualized instruction and equipment maintenance without a long drive, and the small store on site covers basic needs before or after play.

Community relevance extends beyond courts and clinics. Fun Fridays and scheduled tournaments offer social play and competitive outlets that help knit the local tennis community together, providing places for volunteers, junior parents and adult returners to meet and organize. A tournament team gives serious juniors a nearby option to prepare for sectional and regional play without needing to travel long distances for practice or matches.

Registration details and camp schedules are available through the academy’s homepage, where the site lists program categories and pointers for signing up. That makes it easier for coaches, organizers and parents to plan around school and summer calendars. The combination of affordable programming and practical on-site services is intended to lower barriers to entry and create consistent, year-round engagement.

As the Hamptons moves into the new season, the academy’s expanded slate of programs offers a straightforward way for families and adults to get involved.
