Hi. I'm the Community Manager, aka The Mayor of Tennisopolis. Welcome to the site! Tell your friends about us. Use the "invite" tab at the top.
Oh, about me? I'm a website developer as well as a tennis player and huge fan of the pros. I just got moved up to a 4.5 rating - success at last!
I love to follow the pro game. I get fully obsessed during the Grand Slam events to the point where I want to lock the door and just sit around watching in my jammies.
Please invite your friends to join.
Favorite pro tennis player(s):
McEnroe, hands down. Agassi is second. Oh, you wanna know current faves? I like rooting for Murray, Azarenka, Radwanska, Coco. Other retired faves are Santoro and Spadea. Weird group I know, but hey. I love Federer and Nadal too, how can you not?
My tennis skill (please check your NTRP if you know it):
Mr. Mark thank you very much for recognizing my effort in helping kids form my village where i was born to learn how to play tennis in Ghana....I am really interested in children development through tennis and it is something that i will like to do for life but due to inadequate rackets and tennis balls i have to improvise some wooden bats in my village to start this kids....I know it will interest you to know that i started a tennis foundation back in my village before i relocated from Ghana to the States here on green card....I am looking forward to meet a tennis enthusiast who can help me develop this my tennis foundation back in Ghana...Currently i live in Maryland in the city of Laurel.....I will much appreciate you is there is any help you can give to help develop this kids in Ghana eg old rackets,balls,shoes,dresses etc just for kids..This is my cell number 301-256-2312...I look forward to meet you in person one day....Thanks for reading
i am looking to play with someone atleast 3-4 days a week. i liveing in lagrange zip code 30240 i dont have a account on facebook, and i intend not to open one, i hope to find someone around here by febuary when it really gets better outside.
Thank you, Mark! It is a bit exciting to see just how vast this network truly is. I appreciate the welcome and the information. I will also share this network with friends. Have a grand week! vu.
Hi Mark the Mayor...great webpage. I just joined. I've been searching for partners in the Hoboken NJ area...seems most post were made in 2010...three years. I hope to get more people involved this year. Any suggestions?
My hardest challenge is to find someone that can play in the afternoons (as my work schedule doesn't allow me to play in the evenings when 99% of people play) UGH.
Thanks Mark; Ready and looking forward to hit some balls for the season, 2013. I am not sure if anyone started playing for the season and wonder how, when and where to meet the members to get to know each other and find the best mach. I am a new menber and looking forward to play some tennis mostly weekdays in the evening and weekend more likely anytime and hope somebody let me know.
Thanks for your email. I love Nishikori - would be great if he can get over the injury plague that surrounds him. But I like to consider myself a student of the game - I get into people who know about Pancho Gonzales, Laver/Rosewall/Emerson/Hoad, The Three Musketeers, Bill Tilden, Suzanne Lenglen, Mo Connolly, Budge/Perry/Vines, etc.
I love the concept of your site, but is there a way to search my area (such as entering my zip code) and travel distance (i.e. within a 20 mile radius) to find tennis partners?
Hi Mark - great site! Now that the South Bay link/group is fixed I'm happy just being a member. But if you need help, im happy to administrate. Just not sure what the role consists of.
well done mark, it looks a fabulous site, must have been hard work, just join not really good with internet, but looking forward to be a member or your club, many thanks for letting me to be a member. trevor martenstyn.
Mark, thanks for reaching out! Awesome social website. Hope I meet some local players and can improve on my game. Congratulations for your success so far! I have a cousin who lives in Santa Fe, but have never been there. I know they got snow the other day! Hope it does not bog down your play time. Happy Thanksgiving!
Hi Mark, thanks for the welcome message. This looks like an incredible tennis community with lots to offer. I look forward to finding some locals who are also members.
