Hello Chris,

I just found this website and am interested to knowing more details about like how I can sign in to join for the next Sat at Canada College.

I'm just started to play and looking for somebody play with. If any levels are welcome to your group, please tell me how I can be a member of your group.

I just want you know that I'm from Japan and my English is not good.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
My email address: kobecalifornia@yahoo.co.jp

Thank you,
Taeko

Hi Chris

I am visiting from Scotland, I see you have meet organised for tomorrow. is it acceptable for anyone to turn up, or is there a standard of ability required.
I am not quite sure what rating I would be I guess from what I can gather between a 3 or 4.

Cheers

Hey Chris, maybe nextnext weekend if the weather is okay, thinking Sat 01/17/09... Let's plan for Rinconada if the weather permits (unless people would rather do it somewhere closer for the majority, I don"t mind going anywhere). Can you set up an Event for it???

Hey Chris, you look like you're in the know on this site so I thought I'd hit you up for some advice. I'm new to the site...I work on the Peninsula (San Mateo actually) and live in SF. Anxious to get to playing more....been off it for too long. I'm pretty much average and inconsistent right now but want to change that! Any advice for how to meet some partners, events I could go to, etc?

Jan 7, 2009
Kendra S.

Hey! Thanks for getting back to me. Unfortunately (or fortunately since Im going to DC for the inauguration!) I can't make the event this weekend. But sounds good about meeting up in San Mateo some night after work....you're probably a lot better than me and may get bored quickly but I would really appreciate it! I'll be next week after I get back. I usually leave work around 6, so 6:30 at any court in SM would be great for me. Generally Tuesdays are bad, all others good.

Come play along in the Australian Open Pick 'em Bracket Challenge. A fun way to follow the first major of the year!

Jan 25, 2009
Kendra S.

hey yah lets do Wed after work! I'm stoked, I havent played in a while so some patience might be required. :) Im excited! Let me know time and place, and i probably could get there by 6 at the earliest, depending how close to San Mateo!

hey chris,
I was at Canada from 8.30am until 10.30am today...just thought you should know that the USTA have tournaments at Canada almost every weekend up until April. They start at 10am through the late afternoon. So you could play early morning or late afternoon. So you might want to check their full schedule or change the venue on I have keys for 15 courts in Menlo Park if you want to change it to that venue. But you should warn people on this site about the courts....thanks

here's a link to some of the potential courts within our reach.
I have keys for Burgess Park - 2 courts, Nealon Park - 5 courts, Hillview - 2 courts, Coleman Park - 4 courts.
Menlo College also has 12 courts.

Will you be doing a hit around on Saturday, March 14th at Canada College? If so, I'll be there.

Mar 7, 2009
Semisi

I live in Menlo Park and they require you to purchase a key for the courts in Menlo Park which i have and there over 15 different courts and about 8 or so have lights for night play. And Menlo College has I believe 15 courts. I could check..it's just the street from me.
