    Hi Jay,
    I live in Laquinta. I just started playing tennis about 10 months ago. My coach says I'm improving fast. If you do not mind hitting with a beginner let me know.

    You may not be a full time "dual gripper", but...
    Looks like the Battistone's started a Two-handled Tennis Group, right here. Go join it. I'm going to send all the dual grippers in there.

    Hi Jay - Maybe our dogs can get together and play as well! I just adopted a little malti-poo who thrown out of a car in Desert Hot Springs and she needs playmates!

    Now that the weather is getting hot, I'm up for player early in the morning or later at night. I am traveling out of town for business tomorrow morning but could hit on Saturday? I actually looked into joining Mission Hills as I hear they've got great players. However as I haven't been playing all that often, I figured with the cost of the membership it would cost be about $200 everytime I hit! I would love to play over there if you can bring a guest. Let me know if Sat morning works for you.

  • Masio W.

    Hello Jay,
    My name is Masio and I just moved to the desert on Sunday the 29th of June and I have been looking for tennis buddies that I can hit with and it seems to me that you and I share the same level of interest in tennis. I do have a dual residence here and in Los Angeles but only until I find a decent job out here but that only affects my availability everyday but I would really like to play when I'm in town! If you have any time today or tomorrow - Please give me a call @ 805 236 8342
  • Masio W.

    Hey Jay -

    Thanks for getting back to me so quickly... sorry to hear about your ankle - i wish you a speedy recovery and it's up to you whether or not you want to play - lightly would be great for me considering that i haven't played since March so hitting to you down the middle of the court would probably be good for me and the best part about it is that there are courts in the "colony" that i live in so courts are always available so let me know what you want to do and we can go from there

    thanks again for getting back to me
  • allen

    HEY JAY,
    my name's Allen, am a 4.0-4.5 level player. i just relocated here in Palm Desert a few weeks ago and i haven't found anybody to hit with still. it sucks! i live in an apartment with 2 tennis courts with lights but nobody ever plays so i just practice serving all by myself. if you have time, just email me or contact me at this number 509-840-4614.
    thanks!
  • Masio W.

    Jay, I'm back in town for a few days so if you are up for hitting during that time just give me a call and i'll be ready for ya!!!

    i left my number in a previous comment so just give me a ring... thanks again
  • STEVE

    are you still around for Tennis??
  • STEVE

    Wow that would have been great but I have to get my raquet strung. Or restrung. It caused me great pain and my doctor made me promise I wouldn't play with it until I had the strings changed.. but.. how good are the players??? maybe I could just do it anyway.

    Hi,

     

    I'll be visiting Palm Desert/Palm springs from Feb 12-19 and am bringing my racquets.  I'm about a 4.5/5.0 player, but am a little rusty now, and am at about 4.0, i'd say.  Anyway, if you're interested in hitting, let me know.  choth21@gmail.com
