The fundamental goal of the CTA is to maximize fun, exercise, and individual improvement in private and group settings.

Offered through the renowned Village Camps organisation in summer, the CTA organizes and runs 4 - 2 week sessions of Language and Tennis or Tennis and Activities Camp. On the tennis side, these programs offer 15 hours of professional tennis coaching each week, including a comprehensive warm up, physical conditioning, stroke production and technical analysis as well as singles and doubles match play with tactical and strategic analysis. Central to the on-court program are dynamic, competitive coach led-drills, student to student drills, live match play and most importantly a host of exciting group games including Stations, Tennis Olympics, Plums, Ups and Downs, Offense/Defense Blood and Guts, Stick-'um and the CTA signature game Gladiators. Group training sessions are concluded with a cool down and stretching period.
In addition to the tennis program, students choosing Language and Tennis Camp receive 3-45 minute periods of professional French or English language instruction 5 days per week through the Village Camps Language Institute. And, for students opting for Tennis Camp, students can take part in over 40 different exciting afternoon activities offered by Village Camps.
