We can't let South Florida and the Mid Atlantic chapters have all the fun.

count me in...especially since mikeler is buying the Dogfish 60 IPA.

btw - have yet to hit with ssgator80, mikeler or Bob. can't forget James who is a solid hitting partner.

60 minute? No way, not enough alcohol. I need the 90 minute!

Well you guys know my story, but for those who don't. I hit with the crew of regulars at Azalea Park a lot right now. I am taking advantage of living right near the courts on Winter Park. I plan to move downtown where I work and will transition over to OTC a lot more. That may happen this fall, I am still deciding.

Azalea has a lot of good solid 4-4.5 players. The ability to go there about any day of the week and be able to hit for hours with real consistent players is really helping my game and overall fitness levels. Plus I can walk there..so I have to say it's a cool little place. And of course I love OTC. Especially since Frank is the guy when it comes to stringing.

ssgator80 · 06-17-2009, 07:54 AM

Looks like I will have to get to some other courts to check out the competition.

agreed.

looking forward to hitting with a "younger" (but not too young) strong player.

mikeler · 06-17-2009, 09:37 AM

My tennis time is limited these days with a 5 month old, so I'm only willing to play strong 4.5s or 5.0s at the moment. Hopefully that will change down the road.

ryangoring · 06-17-2009, 09:49 AM

does this also encompass daytona?

not many twers over this way. i will come down and with hit you, when i can. btw i'm onkly a 3.5.

I deem that the Greater Area Orlando includes Daytona.

Haven't played an NTRP tourney or league in a little while. I beat 2 guys that were top 10 in the state in the 5.0s more than they beat me. That is my best self rating at the moment.

bad_call · 06-17-2009, 05:07 PM

self rate myself as 4.0 but probably ntrp could be higher. anyway will need to see u play to see if i could provide competition for u. haven't played open tourneys in many years and age takes a toll on the body.

mikeler · 06-17-2009, 06:04 PM

Thank goodness you did not see me play tonight. I still won but only because my opponent was coming off an injury and gassed out. Hopefully I won't have another bad match like that for a while.

mikeler · 06-22-2009, 09:45 AM

Anybody play this weekend? It was so dang hot that I stopped playing after I split sets yesterday. The hangover did not go well with the 98 degree weather.
