I’ll never forget my first day of summer tennis camp—nervous energy, SPF overload, and a very unfortunate neon tank-top-and-basketball-shorts combo (why?). Fast-forward a few summers, and I’ve figured out how to serve both style and function on the court. Whether you’re a player, a parent packing for camp, or just want to upgrade your tennis ‘fit game, this guide has you covered—literally.
Because let’s be honest: when you look confident, you play confident.
What to Wear to Summer Tennis Camp: The Basics
Before we get into outfit inspo, here’s what you want in your tennis wardrobe:
-
Lightweight, breathable fabrics (think mesh, dri-fit, performance blends)
-
UV protection for those long sunny matches
-
Built-in shorts or layers to make running around worry-free
-
Fun, preppy, or colorful styles that make you want to actually wear them!
1. Matching Sets = Instant Outfit Win
Nothing says I’ve got it together like a matching top and bottom set. Whether it's color-blocked or patterned, a two-piece set looks so good while keeping everything streamlined and comfy.
Bonus: It makes packing for camp way easier!

3. Comfy Court Shoes
You need non-marking tennis sneakers that are made for court sports—not running shoes. Look for shoes with lateral support and a grippy sole.
