Hall of Fame
I co-captained half a season in Virginia, and I got a little tired of this:
"Oh, wow. I left my wallet at home. Can anyone lend me $11?"
"I only have a $50 bill. Can anyone break it?"
"Dang it! I used my last check. Can I pay you the next time I see you?"
"Wait, Darlene was supposed to cover my share because I paid for her last week. Did she leave already?"
"Aw, crap. My kids have been in my wallet again. There's an ATM on the corner. Can you follow me up there?"
I can relate, I captained a NOVA about a decade ago. The reason why I stopped playing.
Some teams were getting DIV 1 college players to play at the 4.5 level(before the Dynmaic tennis rating)
Collecting money was an absolute pain in the @SS.
Tennis is not a team sport, its an individual sport (excluding doubles of course).
I would much rather play an USTA tournament in my age group.
