Hi Dan! It's great to have you here!
Join the WTA Fans Group.... Can you think of any other cool groups you could start? Like a Graf Fans Group?
We need a Graf Fans Group page, click that link to start it.
Can you do me a big favor and tell anyone you can think of that would enjoy Tennisopolis about this place? Please Invite anyone and everyone. We’re trying to reach 20,000 members by Wimbledon. :-)
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

Sure Dan, I'm more available during weekdays and would prefer to play doubles but I'm OK with singles once in a while too. Let me know your schedule and when you'd like to play, and I'll see if I can coordinate with you.
Thanks,
John

Dan, I can't play today or tomorrow but Friday would be fine. Day time is good for me as well. I have some tennis courts here at the complex where I live in Huntington Beach, or I can meet you some place else if you prefer. I don't know any doubles players locally but would like to find some if you know any yourself. You can call me at 714-791-1949 if you want. Let me know how Friday looks for you and we can go from there.

Dan, Friday at 10 would be fine but I have a very short errand that I will have to run at 11. It should only take me about 10 minutes so not to much of a disruption. If you can find a couple other players that would be great. I may be able to find someone here in my complex as well but I'll have to let you know for sure tomorrow. I'll call you in the morning tomorrow and we can discuss all this further then.
Take care,
John

Thanks for the resonse. Most days are good for me including weekends. I also have two lighted courts where I live across the street from the Spectrum. We're obviously pretty close so that's a bonus. How about Friday at 6:00? Otherwise I am open all weekend or anytime next week. Thanks-

Hi Dan,

I just posted an event on the Discussion board. It is an 80s party this Friday at the Newport Beach Tennis Club. We are throwing a party to invite young people in the area to check out the club and meet other tennis players.

Let me know if you have any questions and if you would like to come and bring friends.

Best regards,
Kate

Hi Dan,

Just joined this website to find a hitting partner around Irvine and your name popped up. If you're interested in hitting around, I'm pretty free most weeknights, Mon or Tues work best after 5:00 PM. I used to play a bit back in the day (middle school) and play very sparingly nowadays (hardly if ever) but maybe a hit around can shake off the rust.

Hi Dan,
Weekends are pretty open.
I work in HB so I could also meet you after work (5:30pm for me) if that would work.
I had been playing w/a friend in Irvine at some nice courts off Culver & Bryan. Let me know if you'd be interested in maybe even playing later today around 6pm.
you can email me at PLange810@msn.com

Thanks Dan
