About This Activity
Court 16’s summer tennis camp is a Monday-through-Friday program (June 30 – August 29 in NYC) for kids ages roughly 4–12. Choices include half-day (9 a.m.–12 p.m. or 1 p.m.–4 p.m.) or full-day (9 a.m.–4 p.m.) options. They organize groups by ball color/skill (e.g., Red Ball for ages 4–12 on 36-ft courts, Orange Ball for older kids with more experience), rotate courts frequently, and use weekly themed camps (e.g., “Wimbledon Wonders,” “Mind Over Match,” “Courts of All Kinds”) to keep things fresh and engaging.
Their holiday (school-break) tennis camps operate during days off—for example Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Indigenous Peoples Day, Winter Break, Spring Break—usually from approximately 9 a.m.–3 p.m. (or up to 4 p.m.). These camps are for kids ages 5–12 and focus on stroke production, footwork, rallying, and point play, with court rotations every 20-25 minutes and red balls used for younger groups.

Our Take
For parents seeking a downtown Manhattan location that offers structured tennis instruction for kids, Court 16 FiDi is a strong contender: good coaches, a welcoming atmosphere, and positive reports from other families. If your child is younger or just starting, this could be fun and approachable. If your child is more advanced or you expect full-size courts and highly competitive camp structure, you might want to ask specific questions ahead of time, especially about how the camp is organized, the size of the playing space, coach-to-camper ratios, and how older/advanced kids are grouped. A site visit or trial class could be a great next step.
