Age, Sex, Gender, NTRP estimationIf anyone around the Hanover Park area wants to play, Monday (Labor Day) would be a nice time to meet up. I've been wanting to play for a while now. :O

Cool, I actually know how to get to those courts.Ugh sorry, thought of this after I posted and can't seem to edit my post. I don't think I got your name, Tokyo.
Yeah man as long as their names aren't Rafael Nadal or Roger Federer then it's okay.Hmm. I'll have to check with my parents about the time, since I'll need a ride.I wonder if they have to work, it being Labor Day and all.
Yeah sure, I'm up for a 5 setter. Although it will be 3 sets of me losing.Do you mind if I invite a few friends? And maybe we could do some doubles too? Or then split into 2 singles matches.
Rafa is going to be a bit upset that he can't play with us now, I already said he could. :\Yeah man as long as their names aren't Rafael Nadal or Roger Federer then it's okay.
Yeah just post it here, I check this forum like every day for hours.Sounds perfect, I should have a time by tomorrow for you. I'll PM it to you, unless it would be easier to post it here?

Whoah I just woke up.......No, no! Not ditched. I'm sorry, I had to go to my dad's for the weekend. And he has no source of internet whatsoever.
Um, I'm thinking maybe 12 in the afternoon today?
Yeah man so 4 PM for sure for sure for sure??Ah alright. Well good morning. XD
Well my mom just screwed me over with some plans she had made for the family, so is 4PM alright? At the agreed high school courts?
Okay man that's understandable...... I will check back here from time to time to see what's going on.Ugh, my parents are going to have to talk. Her plans have completely ****ed me over, she never tells me about this stuff until last minute. My stepdad is out right now so I may be another hour for the actual time.
Sorry. They really **** me off.
Ok man I will check back later!I have to go. If I'm back by then, I'll post here and let you know. Sorry if I'm not.

Yeah man just bring some water and you should be fine.That sounds perfect. I'll need to leave at about 5:30 to 6:00 as my family is going out to dinner and I need to get back and shower, etc. And if you haven't noticed, it is just boiling out. It's 91 outside and I Live about 5-10 minutes away from the court.My mom is worried about me and the heat. Is that alright?
