Germantown Cricket Club, a National Historic Landmark in north west Philadelphia, keeps more than 20 grass courts and hosted the US National Championships, forerunner of the US Open, from 1921 to 1923. Its tennis department runs a junior tennis offering and weekly adult clinics during the outdoor season from mid May to the end of September. In summer the club stages full day and half day camps for ages 5 to 16 following the USTA American development model, with technique, tactics and match play, plus a separate performance camp for competitive green and yellow ball players who aim to play tournaments or team tennis. Non-members can join the camps.
