One of Wilson’s most popular tennis camps across the nation, the Wilson Collegiate Tennis Camp at Texas Christian University, offers an amazing twelve weeks of incredible fun and learning. The camp at TCU is co-directed by the world-class TCU tennis coaches David Roditi and Lee Taylor Walker. Nestled on the beautiful TCU campus, this camp offers something for everyone with full and half-day camper options.
Each summer, the camp is held at the Bayard Friedman Tennis Center, home of the TCU Varsity tennis teams. Each camper receives personal attention throughout the week, advanced teaching techniques, intensive drill work, and game/match play daily. Campers are divided into small instructional groups with those of similar age., ability and experience, so each child is working in a group commensurate with their experience level. We tailor each program to the level of the players. Action-packed days with tennis fun and extracurricular activities like swimming (for full-day campers) ensure the tennis camp at TCU is the highlight of the summer for kids ages 5-18.
We will have extensive use of the indoor tennis center for this summers camp. As you know, the weather can get quite hot in TX during this time frame and the ability to use the indoor courts – will greatly assist our campers enjoyment.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE CAMP INCLUDE:
- Comprehensive instructional program with daily teaching progressions
- Small instructional groups to ensure individual attention
- Safety prioritized on and off court

MEET YOUR COACHES
Camp Director:
David Roditi
Head Men’s Tennis Coach
Texas Christian University
Former USTA Player Development Lead National Coach David Roditi, one of the great players in the history of the TCU men’s tennis program, was hired as the Horned Frogs’ head coach on Sept. 7, 2010. A three-time All-American who lettered from 1993 through 1996, he still holds the school record for combined career victories (250).
Roditi completed his 15th season at the helm of his alma mater in 2025. Ahead of the 2026 campaign, Roditi is one of only two active D1 head coaches who has won both an ITA Indoor National Championship and NCAA Championship and also coached an NCAA individual champion. He coached TCU to an NCAA Championship following the program’s breakthrough in 2024. He is also one of two active TCU head coaches with multiple national titles under his belt.
Roditi has led TCU to the top of the intercollegiate tennis world. A top-50 program when he was hired, Roditi has since led the program to back-to-back ITA Indoor National Championships in 2022 and 2023 and guided the Horned Frogs to eleven consecutive NCAA Sweet 16 appearances (2015-2025) and they have finished in the top 10 for 11 consecutive years. The Horned Frogs have advanced to the NCAA Team Championships in four straight seasons and six times overall since 2015. They have also played in the NCAA final site each year. No program nationwide has earned more Elite Eight berths than TCU in that span. Through Roditi’s leadership, TCU has finished in the top-10 of the ITA team rankings for 11 straight seasons, a streak unmatched by any Division I program. Entering the 2026 campaign, Roditi possesses a 305-107 (.740) career record over 15 seasons. He holds the second most wins in TCU head coaching history behind his own coach, and TCU legend, Tut Bartzen. Roditi owns a 24-9 career record in NCAA Tournament play and a 15-8 record at the ITA Indoor National Championships. He has been honored as Big 12 Coach of the Year in five of his 13 seasons at the helm (2015-2017, 2022-2023).
A nationally ranked player during each of his four years on campus as a player, he twice reached the quarterfinals of the NCAA Doubles Championships alongside partner Paul Robinson. The pair finished the 1995 season ranked No. 2 nationally in doubles and was rated as high as No. 1 at times in both 1995 and 1996. Among the titles won by the duo were two ITA National Clay Court championships (1994, 1995) and the 1994 ITA All-American Championships crown. The players were also named to the Rolex Collegiate All-Star Team in 1996. Roditi capped his career by earning a career-best No. 25 singles rating in 1996 to go along with a No. 5 mark in doubles. Overall, he posted a combined career record of 250-82 for TCU, which is 12 victories more than any other player in program history. He also ranks No. 2 in doubles wins (121) and No. 4 in singles victories (129). Three times he was ranked All-Southwest Conference in both singles and doubles (1994, 1995, 1996) and he combined for five individual SWC individual singles and doubles titles. The accomplishments resulted in his election to the TCU Lettermen’s Association Hall of Fame in 2007. Following his time as a Horned Frog, Roditi enjoyed a highly successful professional career. He reached a career-high position of No. 41 in the ATP doubles rankings and recorded a win over the former No. 1 doubles team of Mark Woodforde and Todd Woodbridge. He also represented Mexico in 10 Davis Cup matches.

Bayard H. Friedman Tennis Center & Bartzen Varsity Courts History

The Bayard H. Friedman Tennis Center houses both indoor and outdoor facilities and features 27 total courts – six varsity tennis courts and five indoor courts, which are reserved solely for the men’s and women’s tennis programs – as well as 16 courts that are for public use. The outdoor section of the Bayard H. Friedman Tennis Center includes a pavilion with a seating capacity of 1,500 to go along with fully stocked pro shop and complete locker facilities.
