Tennis
On a perfect spring day, the Four Seasons Tennis Club held
a "Tennis Event" on our courts. The weather was delightful
(although a few lobs were grabbed by wind)! Our Event protocol
is laid back and intended to promote an interesting commingling
of talents and camaraderie. While competition is present,we all
want to focus on having fun, and with our group of players that is
always achieved.
We needed 16 players, eight women and eight men, to comprise
eight mixed doubles teams. The teams were determined by blind
draw, as were the opposing teams for each match. Many of us
ended up playing with a partner for the very first time, and that
adds drama!
The finalists for the Event are pictured here. Left to right we
have the WINNERS, John Tarabochia and Ann Alexander and the
runners-up, Cathy Sims and Lorraine Cheung. Ann was also the
winner in our last event, held in October, and Cathy was a runner-
up in that match as well, each with different partners. That will
give you a clue as to how talented they are!
If you have been thinking about getting more exercise and
getting to know some fun people, Four Seasons Tennis is for
you! There are folks on the courts five mornings a week, (not on
Wednesdays or Sundays). We are a welcoming group, so don't be
shy. Come by to join us, or just watch, and introduce yourself!
