The "Art of Doubles" (AOD) Camps have been one of the most popular camps at the Whistler Racquet Club. Developed with the help of former ATP World Doubles Champ Grant Connell, AOD camps feature great doubles tips from some of the best in the business.

Intermediate AOD: camps cover doubles tactics and teamwork, with an emphasis on covering the net more effectively for good doubles play. Lots of time is spent improving volley technique, importance and timing of the split step, team movement, and the role of all four doubles positions.

Art of Mixed Doubles: similar to Art of Doubles but with more emphasis on the unique situations that Mixed Doubles presents in terms of differences in power and tactics.

Advanced AOD: players should be comfortable and effective at the net, and be able to execute a consistent serve and volley. Quality time is spent on the Server's Partner and Receiver's partner crossing more at net, poaching moves, I-formation and more advanced doubles tactics. More emphasis on Serve and Return of Serve - for Advanced Doubles.

SIGN UP EARLY: These camps sell out quickly!
