First Week and a look ahead

The first week for tryouts (Feb. 21-25) came and went with the weather winning. One good day of practice on Wednesday plus the hour we were able to fit on the first day before the rains came were all we were able to get in. Snow and Ice on Tuesday, Rain on Thursday and winds on Friday prevented us from getting out on the courts. Hopefully this week will be better, at least the forecast is hopeful!!

Remember no practice Monday (plus severe weather looks like it will take hold). Practice Tuesday through Friday. We will practice Tuesday to prepare for the seeding tournament on Wednesday and Thursday. Everyone will play at least 3 one set matches against a teammate to determine the seeding to start the season. This will change as we go through the season but get's us started. Friday will focus on Doubles.
