Spinning Ball Comes Back
A drop shot ball was hit just over the net. The ball came back across the net with a strong backspin without the opponent hitting it. Whose point?

Quote of The Month |
One would think that Bjorn Borg, one of the greatest tennis players to ever
live, would consider his skill his greatest asset. Instead, this is what he
says, "My greatest point is my persistence. I never give up in a match.
However down I am, I fight until the last ball. My list of matches shows
that I have turned a great many so-called irretrievable defeats into
victories." Continue until you get to the top!

Charlotte Petition for more courts... |
| |
Despite the strong public participation in the Community Workshops, and significant needs identified in public surveys, funding for tennis was not specified on any previous project lists for a $200M or a $300M bond referendum.
We are advocating for $5M of the $250M bond (2% of the total bond) to be allocated specifically for the construction of a 20 to 30 court Tennis Center, to provide a hub where youth/adults/seniors can come together to play and learn the game. Tennis is one of the most social of all sports; a community hub where people can gather is essential to the sport. Many more courts are needed to meet the demands of the growing organized league play in our community. A Community Tennis Center will give Charlotte the opportunity to host local, regional and national tournaments as well as league championship events, benefiting local players and with the ability to provide significant economic stimulus to the entire County.
