Profile Information:

Neighborhood or other helpful location info:
Philadelphia, PA
Random things about me (hobbies, occupation, tennis history, favorite band, etc.):
Moved to Philadelphia from Sweden in 2007. I've played a lot of tennis growing up, but only with friends, never organized in a club, or with a coach.

After reading the NTRP ranking system, I'd say I'm a 4.0, but perhaps need to brush up a little, since it's been a while.

I live in University City, and prefer playing around that area, though I could occationaly drive else where.
Favorite pro tennis player(s):
Stefan Edberg. I don't really follow tennis that closely anymore, but back when I used to, Edberg was king. I liked Pete Sampras too, and I think Federer seems like a nice guy. Björn Borg would probably have been the best ever if he hadn't retired at the age of 25....
My tennis skill (please check your NTRP if you know it):
NTRP 3.5, NTRP 4.0
On the court, I am a:
doubles partner, singles player, serve-n-volleyer, double faulter, baseliner, all courter, gracious winner, gracious loser
Relationship status:
Married

    Jonas,
    Thought I'd try posting a comment directly to you, since you weren't alerted on the thread. We'd love to play on Sunday. For now, do you want to plan on, say 12:00 in Narberth?

    You can google map Narberth, PA and then zoom in on "Narberth Ball Park"... that is where the courts are. See you on Sunday. We'll be in touch if anything comes up.
