3.5 player (I think) looking for regular hitting partner on Tues evenings and Sat, around Redwood City
I haven't tried the online thing before, but people say it works, so here I am giving it a shot...
I kid, I kid.
Ok, seriously, I am looking for a regular hitting partner on Tues evenings after work, and on Saturdays (late mornings/afternoons). I have been playing tennis on and off for a few years, though I have started playing much more regularly over the last 4 months or so. I estimate my rating at around (a totally unofficial) 3.5. As for my game -- my forehand is good enough to hold a rally for a while, but my backhand is shakier. I am currently working on making both my forehand and backhand topspin shots more reliable.
I am mainly looking to play rally-sessions for around 90 minutes, but would be happy to play sets too. Any court within 20-30 mins of Redwood City is good for me.
Please let me know if you are interested!
Thanks,
Vivek

You should come out to Canada College on Saturday morning when everybody plays. Most are 3.0-4.0 range.
We also play quite a bit at Red Morton in RWC, so send me an email on the site and I can give details.

Hi Jim -- thanks for your reply. I would have loved to join in on Sat mornings, but don't you guys play at 10 or so? I tend to wake up too late during the weekend to be able to make it to this on time. 11 would be the earliest I can make it with any assurance. Please let me know if there is something planned later on Saturday.

Hi Kar -- sorry for the late reply...
My schedule has been pretty irregular these days... and I won't be able to do Tuesday this coming week... maybe shoot for Tuesday of the following week?

Hi Vivek,
I live in San Carlos and would be interested in getting some regular play on weekday evenings and weekends. I used to be regular player (~3.5 I think) but have not played for a while now. Would love to get into the game again regularly.
My email is: debiparo@yahoo.com
