What Camp Options Are Offered in Summer?
Our summer camp runs for up to 11 weeks with full-day and half-day options. Flexible weekly enrolment lets families choose the weeks that work best. Extended care is available before and after standard hours so Cummer families can align drop-off and pick-up with their work schedules.

What Happens During the Spring Session?
The junior spring programme is an 8-week session running 2 to 3 days per week. It covers core stroke mechanics, footwork, and early match-play skills, preparing juniors for the summer camp that follows. Families near Westminster-Branson also join this seasonal starting block.

How Do Coaches Support New Players?

Coaches ensure every newcomer feels comfortable and supported, gradually introducing more advanced concepts. Families from Hillcrest Village and the Sheppard corridor also start their children in these groups.
What Does the Fall Session Cover?
The fall programme runs for 6 weeks, consolidating skills from summer and building tactical awareness for indoor play. Coaches work on technique refinement, mental preparation, and match-play confidence. Cummer families use it to keep their child’s development on track through the autumn months.
What Green Spaces Surround the Facility?
Our courts border the East Don Parklands and sit near Bayview Village Park, both offering walking trails and family-friendly green space. Cummer residents are also close to Cummer Park, Newtonbrook Park, and Edithvale Park, making the area one of North York’s most park-rich corridors for outdoor recreation.

Testimonial
What Our Students Say
“I’d like to share how much I enjoyed my lessons with Coach Ahmed during summer 2025. He is one of the kindest, most attentive, caring, and humorous coaches I’ve met in my tennis journey. He consistently followed well-planned lessons while remaining flexible to meet students’ individual needs. He was also very accommodating in arranging makeup lessons when we had to miss sessions during the summer. Overall, I highly recommend Ahmed to players of any level. He made my experience at Bayview Village Tennis Club far more engaging and enjoyable and I can’t wait to go back to his class this summer again.”
