It's a men;s league and 4.0 and 4.5 players are welcome. The matches are played on Monday nights and the league lasts a couple months.

I'm around this weekend if you're feeling inspired by the US Open and want to get out and hit for awhile. I live near downtown minneapolis but can travel pretty much anywhere in the metro area.

I'm in Victoria, so we're not too far away from one another. Let me know if you're interested. My job schedule is extremely flexible, so most times work for me ... weekend or weekday.

Let me know if you want to play. I played 4.5 this past summer and won almost all my matches playing at #1 and #2 doubles.

At 12:41pm on May 11, 2008, Bo said…: Good luck with the job search. I'm looking to start hitting again this year and can hit in the Minnetonka area on weekends if you are available.
