College Tennis Exposure Camp rocked Lakeland

Jan 16, 2025

Junior players, from 20 states and 5 countries, came together to train on court with 21 Head College Coaches during the weekend of December 7-8 at the Beerman Tennis Center in Lakeland at Coach Ed Krass' 36th Annual College Tennis Exposure Camp.

Players were treated to 10 hours of on court drilling and team matchplay, with on court coaching, during the camp's dynamic weekend. Players had an opportunity to showcase their game as well as learn more about the college game and strategies from each college coach instructing.

"Every camp allows our staff of Division, 1,2,3 and NAIA Head Coaches to work on court with each player to assess their game, personality, work ethic, coachability and upside", stated Ed Krass, who started his camp in 1989 when he was the Head Women's Coach at Harvard. Krass goes on to say, "Our camp has provided a successful springboard, for thousands of players, to be recruited into the College Tennis ranks!"
