What is this Blog Anyway. . .

Well, I thought to kick off my blog, I might just explain what my intentions are. I have been playing tennis since I was in fifth grade. I love the sport, and the sport loves me . . . you could say we have a "love all" relationship. In addition to playing tennis, I have also taught summer tennis lessons for five years and even been assistant coach for a high school varsity team--the one I played for, in fact. All in all, I love giving tennis tips.

But recently I was reminiscing about the good ol' high school days with one of my doubles partners, and he and I got to talking about how much we learned about life by playing tennis. I thought to myself, "Why not (1) share how tennis is the best sport in the world, (2) give tips about how to improve your tennis game, and (3) connect tennis principles to life?" And so the birth of this blog.

In some posts I will be offering tennis tips. In others, I will make a connection with tennis and life. And in still others, I might just talk about a recent grand slam match (in other words, current tennis news). So I guess the only boundaries are tennis and life, and I don't think there should be any foot faults about that. So "drop" in from time to time, and "let" me know what you think.
