I am not sure if you remember me. I am Yamuna and I used to come and play during the social on Saturdays at the Hyde Park tennis clubs.

I was really looking forward to playing tennis there with you and other the nice people I met there last year.

I went there looking for you last weekend but was very dissapointed to see that it is managed by somebody else.

Do you manage any otehr courts anywhere ?

Would like to hear from you.

Where are you? Haven't seen you on the site lately. Hope all is well. The Cincinnati clinic with Oscar didn't materialize because of some court issues with the prospective host. Would you be able to come to Orlando, Florida for either of our 2-week camps? We'd love to see you there, back on the forums, etc. Let us know what's going on with you and your tennis scene! Lucy

I love your photos! One question, though. How does that one guy hit a tennis ball with that big fish? You seem to be part of a very dedicated tennis community. I hope all those players are utilizing Oscar's techniques to up their games as well! Oscar and I would love to come to your club to conduct a seminar with you and all your tennis mates. If you are interested please contact me via my website at www.tennisteacher.org and please keep participating in my tennis group here on Tennisopolis.

Just opened your message from weeks ago regarding Gourmet Open event. I hope to see you tonight at Eastern for the event. Thanks for the suggestion of getting with Angie, however, I happened upon another partner in the interim.

See you on the courts!
