Random things about me (hobbies, occupation, tennis history, favorite band, etc.):: laid back guy with

LITERALLY no tennis experience,

but very athletic, baseball most of my life.

5'11, competitive but polite, willing to play with anyone willing to tolerate a complete novice.

Live right on Plummer Park.

It's amazing when you first start how hard it is to even get going so do yourself a favor and set yourself up with other beginners and a teacher that specializes in this. This is what I would do: Enroll in a class for like $60 at LACC (Los Angeles City College) - it's in their Community Services section. There you will learn the basics and get some practice in. And don't think I think I'm such a bad-ass that I can't be bothered. In fact, I will probably be enrolling myself in one of the intermediate classes so maybe I will meet you out there.

Once you feel you are volleying pretty good, try me again! It'd be nice to have some tennis buddies in the hood!
