First, don't shot the messenger.
While playing blocktime (social tennis) last night, I yelled to my partner to watch out for an overhead. She (who attended the captains meeting) proceeded to tell me that we can't yell out anything while the ball is on the opponents side, due to the fact that the verbal hinderance rule will be enforced this spring/summer season, which could result in a loss of point.
(i.e. the Serena Williams USO incident last year)
I'm not sure if it will be enforced throughout the entire Mid-Atlantic section. But I do know it will be used in Howard County.
Can you imagine the gamesmanship that will take place this season????
All I can say is....this will be one very, very, drama filled season. Ugh!
Again, don't shot the messenger.
