    Hi Cate - I saw your comment on the "Introductions". I think people generally use these guidelines to "rank" themselves:

    I'm trying to find some people to regularly hit with, let me know if you're interested? I used to play a fair amount in high school, and am looking to get back into it :)

    My schedule is pretty basic, just work M-F from 9-6, so I can play in the early mornings, and evenings, and anytime on the weekends.

    Would be great to meet up and see if we're a good match - let me know when you're available :)

    Hi! Well, I played some tennis this past weekend, and it turns out that I am really alot rustier than I thought. My forehand shots were flying all over the place, I definitely need to get some more consistency before I'm ready for an actual game :(
    If you still want to get together for a rally, let me know, otherwise I can msg you once my game starts to improve :)

    Thursday sounds great! I don't remember if you mentioned which courts you are close to, or prefer to play at? I live close to the Dolores Park courts, but can travel anywhere :)

    Hi Cate! Yes, I am trying to get a regular group meet-up going! I've been trying to gauge interest, and actually meant to ask you yesterday if you were interested. We haven't actually met yet, but I will keep you in the loop - are you around next weekend?? Was thinking something in the morning when the courts might not be so full :)

    (Yesterday was great! Although it was freezing! Haha)

    Cate!

    It's been a while, hope you are doing well?? The weather hasn't been so great lately, but was wondering if you were around next week for a rally?

  • Ellen

    Hey, that sounds good - does the 16th or 17th (tues/wed) work for you? I'll also be going out of town on the 18th for about a week.

    (or we can play it by ear and wait until you get back, whichever is easier)

    Hey Cate,

    Usually during the week I'm only available to play tuesday or thursday evenings, and not until 7:45 or 8.. Starting the thursday after next though, thursday morning is open through august. Also, during the first 2 weeks of august I'm available to play in the afternoons. Otherwise, weekends are best! Hopefully we can line something up soon, lemme know if any of that may work for you, and I'll look forward to perhaps hitting with you soon.
