Refunds

Refunds for camp fees are available up to the non-refundable deposit before the start of the camp. The balance of your payment, minus the deposit, may be refunded if requested prior to the commencement of camp. In the case of an injury, participants must provide documentation from their physician. Injured athletes will be eligible for a refund, minus the deposit, for each camp session.

Cancellations and Refunds:

No refunds will be issued for cancellations made less than one week before the camp begins, unless accompanied by a note from a doctor.
In the event that a camper needs to transfer sessions, please contact us as soon as possible. We will make every effort to accommodate the request, provided there is space available in the desired session. Additional charges may apply for transfers made within two weeks of the original session.
Please note: NCAA regulations require that university camps adhere to the stated refund policies. Exceptions cannot be made, as doing so would constitute a compliance violation for both the university and the camper.
No-Shows and Emergencies:
Participants who do not attend their registered session (no-shows), or fail to notify Baylor Tennis Camp of their cancellation at least 24 hours before camp check-in, will not be eligible for a refund.
If a camper must leave due to illness, a Covid-related issue, or an emergency, a prorated refund will be issued, minus the deposit, housing, and food charges. Once camp begins, all fees related to housing and meals are non-refundable.
Covid-19 and Cancellations:
If Baylor Tennis Camp is required to cancel a session due to Covid-related facility closures, government mandates, or other unforeseen circumstances, participants will automatically receive a full refund.
Waiver of Damages:
By registering for the camp, the camper waives any and all claims for damages that may arise from cancellation and agrees to accept the registration fees as liquidated damages.

Tennis Camp Counselors

At our camp, we believe in providing round-the-clock support and guidance to ensure every camper has a safe, enjoyable, and enriching experience. Our team of camp counselors includes Baylor students, Baylor coaches, high school coaches, and current or former student-athletes who have competed at the collegiate level. All of our counselors bring a wealth of experience working in camp environments and with minors.

Our experienced and mature male and female staff are actively engaged in the camp 24/7, offering supervision, mentorship, and encouragement at all times. Whether it's on the courts, during activities, or in between sessions, we’re always here for our campers—ensuring they receive constant attention and care.

To guarantee the highest level of safety and trust, all of our staff members undergo rigorous criminal background checks and child protection training, conducted by the Baylor University Human Resources Department. You can rest assured that your child is in capable hands every moment they’re with us.
