    Hi Lysandra! It's great to have you here! Love the dreads by the way. We already have a Westside Group waiting for you – join in and have fun.
    If you need any help, let me know.

    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

    Hey Lysandra...sounds great! I'm leaving town in a couple of days, but lets chat next Monday and we'll figure out a day that works for both of us.

    Yeah. I live on 14th Street, so that can't get any more convenient for me. I'd even play tonight if it didn't just inexplicably rain. But I"m around this weekend and free most evenings. I'm actually off work a bit early tomorrow, probably around 2.

    Hi Lysandra,

    are you still looking for someone to play with? I just joined the board and think it is great. I just got pumped about tennis and bought a new racquet. I played like years ago, but feel that my energy and enthusiasm will be winning.

    Hi Lysandra,

    I just want to make sure that you know I have not played in years. Want to make sure that is okay for you. I am open to play at that court. I live in Sherman Oaks, but work off the 405 in Culver City, so it is easy for me to go on my way home after work one day.

    Hey: Last I heard from you, you were away up north for the weekend, and were gonna contact me when you got back. I e-mailed your personal e-mail and didn't hear anything. Still wanna play? I'm on 14th and Arizona so 14th and Olympic couldn't be closer. I also know a bunch of other local courts.
  • Ricardo

    Lets hit if you want. Are you free Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday
  • Matthew Medlin

    If you ever play in SaMo, then maybe soon we can play. Memorial Park is closest, but maybe another place? Thanks.
  • Ricardo

    Its pretty complicated, but the jist of it is that my days off are Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday and I stay in Bell Gardens when on my days off. So I'm willing to drive a reasonable distance to play.

    Hi Lysandra,

    I have joined the group recently , I used to play tennis and want to get back to play tennis, recently I played and I guess I'm a Solid 2.5 / a regular 3.0 kinda rusty on the serve side but we can rally.
    I'm in Century City/ Rancho Park , but it will be ok for me to play somewhere in the west side. If you are still in Culver City it could be ok .
    I can play on the weekends or around 7pm during the weekdays.
    pls email me if that sounds good to you.

    cheers
  • Matthew Medlin

    Sure...let's do it. Here's my email matt@idftmedia.com let me know what time works for you.
  • Kenneth

    As a fellow writer, would you happen to be looking for a hitting partner daytimes/weekdays?
    If bouncing tennis balls doesn't cure writers bloc, perhaps bouncing ideas off each other during breaks will...

    Hey! Looking to find a new tennis partner - someone to rally with - I've been playing since I was 8 and played Varisty in high school but haven't played the last few years - just getting back into it. Don't need to play with an expert but just trying to get the rust off - would love to hit sometime - let me know. I work for Warner Bros. as a development and production exec.
    Looking forward to hearing from you.

  • Wandie

    I'd love to find another female partner. If you ever want to play on weekday nights or weekends, let me know.
  • Adam

    I'm in Culver City too, and am also a writer (but not for the film industry!) As a fellow scribe, maybe that means you could play during sunlight hours? Everybody here wants to play at like 7:30pm. Let me know if you can play in the sunshine.
  • Adam

    OK, do you have a game planned for Saturday? If not, let's play!
  • Wandie

    Sat. afternoon sounds good to me, as long as it's after noon. What is your email address?
  • Rich H

    Hello! Hope you've been well. I'm trying to see if people want to play next week or soon thereafter, so if you do, let's figure out when/where. Ciao 4 now.
  • kyle t. heffner

    my tennispartner blew out his knee. I am looking to hit.
  • Rich H

    Howdy. Yea I was hoping to lose weight and run around the court(s) this month. Are you over a 4.0 or 3.5 ranking? I will be by the end of the summer (hahaha) if I do the amount of playing I hope to do. I'm in SaMo and you're in CulCity. What's your schedule/availability like for Thursday through June 30th?
  • Rich H

    Here's where you can see what rank you may be.
