The first Bermudian National Collegiate Athletic Association Exposure Camp will be held for young tennis players at the WER Joell Tennis Stadium tomorrow.

Ed Crass, the founder and director of College Exposure Camp, will be joined by former top Bermuda player James Collieson in putting the players through their paces from 10am to 4pm.

The camp will look to improve the players’ shot selection and placement, understand the various levels of the college game, and achieve better results against higher ranked players.

Krass coached Harvard to four consecutive Ivy League team titles as well as NCAA tournament appearances and is a United States Tennis Association high-performance coach.

After graduating from high school, Collieson benefited from the College Exposure Camp in Tampa, Florida, to get recruited by over 20 NCAA Division I universities.

He then played at the Auburn University with world-class players, which was a catalyst to him continuing his tennis development and enable him to earn ATP points between 2001 and 2004.
