    Hey Dave,

    I was beginning to wonder if anyone actually played on this site.

    I could do Sunday about mid-morning. I'm in Wesley Chapel. A good mid-point location might be the Temple Terrace Complex. I haven't been there in a while so not sure what shape they are in.

    10 would be good for me. It's at 6610 Whiteway Dr. Easiest way would be 75 to Fowler to Gillette Ave. It's probably been more than 5 years since I've played there. Used to have about 12 hard courts. Looks like now it is 6 clay. I'm not sure if they charge. It used to be free. I'm willing to give it a try.

    Hey Dave,

    Sounds like it changed quite a bit since I was there. Used to be just 12 free hard courts out there that anyone could jump on. No one was ever there. Let's try somewhere else. Do you know anything about the USF courts? I've never been able to find the ones that are open to the public and have parking. If not, you mentioned some in Brandon near you. I'll make the drive. Let me know what you prefer.

    Sounds good.

    Can you hit in the mornings or only evenings?

  • Michael Hand

    Fishing is fun but not good for trying to get in shape! Right now I am wanting to take care of my new years resolution of dropping 20 pounds before spring. What is the earliest you can do in the evening? 

  • Michael Hand

    I could hit next week on Monday if you are going to be around. 

  • Michael Hand

    Are the lights ok? Get back with me on Sunday to confirm and we can make sure the weather is going to be ok. 

  • Michael Hand

    Sounds good.
