    Will be in San Antonio for Oct. 9-12, 2016

    I will be in San Antonio near Riverwalk for conference from Sunday to Wednesday. Does anyone know of a good place where people come out to play? I'm in a USTA 4.5 league and would like something to do after work.

    Please rate my strokes...ADVICE?!?

    Wow that's a huge compliment. My goal is to play D1 tennis. I was almost 15 when I started two years ago so I've got a lot of improving to do before that can happen and every little details counts so thanks for the advice and compliment.

    How do "A" and "B" relate to NRTP ratings.

    Hi Baxter, If you're referring to Telluride then I'd say you could have played A and would have done well. Maybe you got unlucky last year meeting up with the best team in the draw first round. As a previous poster said, if there's only two divisions, given your past successes, you would...

    Thanks for the comment. I see the foot drag and I'm trying to change it by pushing off the left foot but this will not help me open up my hips then my shoulders like on the on the forehand side? Is that right? In other words, my plan is to use more of an open stance (or neutral sometimes if...

    LOL yeah I always wear my real tennis shoes in real matches. Sometimes in practices we run, work out, and they're so comfortable so I play in Adidas running shoes. Besides the shoes, did you see something else I need to work on?

    Please rate my strokes...ADVICE?!?

    Thanks! So what I'm hearing is that I need to ramp up my intensity including my footwork, swing speed, and watch for swinging more forward into my ground strokes. Did I miss anything else? Thanks for all the advices as they are very helpful.

    You're dead on. I've been playing 18 months and I have a lot of inconsistent performances. I think it's a direct result my lazy footwork. I beat adult 3.5 players and usually win against 4.0 players by a single break in each set.

    Thanks Spaceman. I didn't even notice I was doing that. So I probably should keep my right hand in the FH grip and the left hand in my BH grip in the ready position?

    Has any been to Saddlebrook? Any comments?

    Smashlob: What kind of tennis drills/strategies happened? What did you do mostly during the tennis time? Was it just drills/drills/and more drills or was it instructional talking/demonstrating or was it match play with strategical talks in between points? What is your ability level? Rate...

    Has any been to Saddlebrook? Any comments?

    I want to go to the week long adult camp this summer. Does anyone have anything positive or negative to say about Saddlebrook? I know it's for serious tennis players and that's really why I want to go there instead of Newk's even though that's closer for me. Thanks, Tom
