The courts are open to the general public. Sometimes different leagues have them reserved, but they post a schedule for that. We do not have any set time. I try to get over there whenever someone can meet! I have only been playing for about one month, but I think I am okay for a beginner. It is so much fun and I love the exercise! If you want, I can let you know when I can go! You can tell me when you are available too!

Hi Amy! Jonesboro is about 20 min south of Atlanta. I am a Beginner and am enjoying playing and the exercise that comes with it. I have pulled my kids to the court too and have spent some of the best bonding time on the court with them.

My husband got me into it relucutantly, and now I love it. I have four boys (19,18,13,5) and one girl (6). They all love to go out to the court with me to play. We have been playing for about 6 mos. now.

Hello Amy. Thank you for the introduction and invitation to join the beginners group. I will probably take you up on it but first I need to work out my rusty moves on the court.

You rock! I saw that BigMike is helping your group - that's so cool. I love the synergy here. Go around and tell any beginners you can find about your new group. cut and paste this in:

Come join [a href = http://www.tennisopolis.com/group/thebeginnerracqueteers]The Beginner Racqueteers[/a].... but replace the [ and ] with < and >.

Hi Amy,

You are the first person to invite me as a friens and I am totally stoked! Even though I am only a novice, I love to play this game. It's kind of hard finding someone to play that's at my level. I want to play every day but the rest of my life gets in the way. Thank for being my 1st tennis buddy!

Hey Amy --

I live in Candler park and work near GA tech. I can play on weekends and some weeknights, although that can be a bit touch-and-go for me. Thanks for starting the group. I have lived here for about 6 months and haven't found anyone to play with.

Hi Amy, thanks for the welcome. So, you're telling me I can find a tennis wife on here? :) SWEEEEEEETTT!
Sounds like you are just starting out? Do you play ALTA? If not, you should give it a try, it's highly addictive. Well, off to try and find a wife! :)

Hi Amy,
I've been contacted by a tennisopolis group right here in San Clemente. I am stoked! The climate here is just about perfect all year so I can play all year. The only problem is that I work long hours and have too many other activities that I enjoy. I will post my face on here as soon as I can figure out hoe to do it.

Hey Amy,

We lived on 6th Ave between 14th and 15th Sts, in NYC. What part of Long Island did you live in? Got a lot of friends from LI...

It's okay that you've never heard of Little 5 Points, I've never heard of Cumming (that makes me sound frigid...wink wink...) Anyway, it is a cute little area...you should take the family on a little shopping trip here sometime http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_5_Points

I do have a feeling may of you 'Aces' are way to far away from me to have a regular tennis thing going...I still don't like having to use my car...

Cheers,
Fat

Hi Amy!

We do not currently attend any shows. We will once our other company's cages are back in production - Liberty Cage Company. We were just awarded a utility patent - this month! We use cockatoos as test birds for the cages - with good reason!

Hey,
I am somewhere between a beginner and intermediate. Would love to hit some balls and play during the work week. Let me know if you are interested. I live in Snellvile and work in Covington. Anywhere in and around Decatur works best for me.

Amy,

Hi there!
I posted a general message about this in the discussion group,
on tennisoplis but since you are the organizer of the group, I wanted to send you a personal message. My name is Jonathan and as a hobby I string tennis racquets (I also love playing tennis of course). I have several years of stringing
experience (my dad was a tennis pro so I grew up stringing
racquets), own a top of the line machine, offer the best prices around, and can get your racquet back to you within 24 hours.

I string for many people in the Atlanta/Dunwoody area but I am trying to grow my hobby and string for more people. I would love to be of service to you and your tennis friends. It looks like you play lots of tennis, so if you ever need your racquet re-strung, please give me a try! Thanks Amy!
