Hi Jim! It's great to have you here!
If you need any help, let me know. Invite your buddies.

We are all very excited to have created this "community-based" tennis website which puts the focus on the members.

To get started, please upload a photo or avatar for yourself (if you haven’t already.) Whether it's of you, your dog, your racquet it doesn't matter, but it helps people remember you. You can also personalize Your Page with pictures, links, RSS feeds, colors and more here.

If you are looking to meet people for tennis matches, Join the group in your area and introduce yourself in there. Some groups have regular meeting times and some are more one-on-one and flexible. If there’s no group in your area yet, start a group page for your town and invite your tennis contacts. It's a good place to keep in touch with everyone in your circle.

Tennisopolis is also a great place to network with people all across the country and talk about this game we love.

Other places to explore: come talk tennis in the forum, add your own photos, post your own blog entries.

…and just hang out and meet great people.

Welcome aboard,
Mark

Yo! I'm a little sick- I hope to get better soon so we can hit this week. Hopefully Wed afternoon, you in??

Wed night at 7pm- PCCC Clinic, coach called me to get your number, his email is down- Thurs is my match with David, I play him first, then Pascal... See you Wed night? later

Feb 26, 2008
Rafael

Yah, I'm playing Dave this Thursday at 7pm- Palo Alto High School... I am joining the Wed clinic...

Feb 26, 2008
Rafael

Hey! It went really well. 6-0,6-1... David was playing well, but I was all over the serve and volley- it really changed the dynamic of the game from a few weeks ago. He was wondering if we were interested in a doubles match Sunday the 13th of April at noon. He was down to meet at Red Morton. I put it in my calendar- talk later, raf

Yo Jim, you down for Red Morton this Sat at noon with the hommies from tennisopolis? Chris said he could make it- usually the courts are open by then if more people show up... later

Way to go! 2.7 Oneclick Champ! We'll have to celebrate. Did you drop to your knees fists extended toward the sky after the set point?! I hope so!
Congrats!

Hi Jim,

My name is Michele; I just joined this morning. I'm trying to figure out how to ask if anyone wants to hit today. Can you help?
Thanks, Michele

Yo Jim,

Cool group. Want to hit at lunch sometime this week?

Mar 30, 2008
Michele

Hi Jim,

Thanks so much for replying. For some reason all the messages ended up in my spam file so I'm just seeing this now, darn! I did not find anyone to hit with Sun but I did play this morn at CSM. How about this weekend?

Apr 1, 2008
Michele

Hi Jim,

Just wondering if anyone want to hit this Sunday, April 6th. I'm not finding it east to navigate or get responses on this site, help?

Hi Jim!

I am a beginner's player, hoping to find someone to practice with in RWC. I am her on vacation for a couple weeks. Hope we can play some time.

Thanks,
Michelle

Hello Jim! Thanks for the class info. Unfortunately, I'm going to Monterey tomorrow. I'll try to check if they have weekday classes but I'm in town for only 2 weeks so the sched might not work out...

I'm just looking to improve my game. It's difficult for a beginner. The only way around it is to practice : ) Let me know if we can play one of these days.

Thanks!

Apr 4, 2008
Jim

Ok,
have fun in Monterey!

Jim

Rinconada Park in Palo Alto at noon next Saturday the 19th. Be there with your game face... or maybe just some water and a racket. Heck, bring some beer if you want to. Just show up and have a good time. :)

Aloha Jim!!
What up dude, did you see our first line-up? It's a father/son combo! The guy is ranked pretty high, and the kid is good too- we better bring some heat! Let's push those two off the court! Should we set up the match for this Sat?? After this weekend, I'll be gone until May 3rd. See you Sat morning, later-

Apr 16, 2008
Jim

Saturday would probably be better for me too.
Have you played the local yet?

Jim

Apr 17, 2008

Sounds good... just gimme a holler when you're free. Best. Aaron.

Canada College this Saturday the 26th at noon. We've got all levels of play, so come on out. Come early or late if you like, but leave a message on the group page so people will know who's going and when. (And, conversely, we'll know who the poopers are. Heh.)

Apr 22, 2008
Jim

I'll be there. The courts usually clear out by noon so there shouldn't be much of a problem getting one.
Cool.

I got the group spam as an e-mail, but it's not anywhere on my tennisopolis page as a message or comment. It's got the information, though. I was wondering how to do that. Where's the link for messaging the whole group?

Apr 23, 2008
Rafael

What up dude?

Apr 23, 2008
Patrick

Okay, I found the link to message everyone in the group (I didn't realize I was such a dolt), but it's next to a bunch of administrative options that I'm pretty sure I shouldn't have. (i.e. banning group members) I don't know what's up with that.

Apr 23, 2008
Patrick

Ah, I get it. Just got your comment on my page. Thanks. That way when I set up the event for next weekend, I can just message everyone the link and info for that and I don't have to spend 20 minutes commenting on everyone's page. Heh... that was annoying.

Apr 23, 2008
Patrick

Yeah, admin options gone, but the send message to group button is now there. I'd think that would be default, but at least it's an option.

Thanks. See you Saturday.

Nice photos Jim. So I am free tomorrow (Sunday), what time are you guys playing? Confirm that it's Red Morton as well please. I have something from 9:30-11am, but besides that I'm totally free (and if you play during that time, no worries).

Aaron

Yo Jim! I am ready to battle Sat! What's been happening? San D rocks- lovin it down here... later

Apr 28, 2008
Rafael

Yah, I'm not really interested in pccc clinics on the weekends either, I'd rather keep it open like we do- I would be down to do that USTA doubles thing though...

Apr 28, 2008
Aaron C

You guys hitting at Red Morton tomorrow (sunday)?

May 3, 2008
Patrick

This Saturday, May 10th, we'll be playing and picnicking at Rinconada Park in Palo Alto.

Anyone and everyone is welcome. Bring anything you would like to share. Bring your family, too. There are grills in the park, so charcoal and burgers/hot dogs are definitely doable.

Please comment on the event page here so people will know what others are bringing.

And remember, most of us are new and don't know many others in the group, so feel at ease and feel welcome to join us. Meet some new folks and have a good time. Hope to see you there!

sure, you want to play on thursday or friday?

May 5, 2008
Aaron C

Same here, I had a great time, let's do it again some time. Let me know what's up on Saturday, where and when.

Yo! Hello from New Jersey ova here! What's happening bro? later, raf

Jul 12, 2008
Matthieu

Yeah, she's running a tight ship around here....Just kidding, we were supposed to go to Napa to her mom's late afternoon, but plans changed, so we couldn't make it on Saturday. And we probably won't these next couple of weeks since Eleonore's b/f is here, and since I start working this week we'll only have the weekends to do stuff.
Anyways, have fun, and we'll see you soon.
