FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | AUGUST 2021 59
Let me introduce myself — my name is Syed Ali, a resident of
Four Seasons since February 2014. I enjoy this very peaceful and
nice community with plenty of activities.
I have been into sports since high school playing hockey, squash,
tennis, table tennis, sky diving, hang gliding, rowing, and scuba
diving.
I now mainly play paddle tennis; it's a game like tennis on a
smaller scale.
Alan Chan, Captain/founder of the paddle tennis here at Four
Seasons, started over 10 years ago. He has handed over the
responsibility to keep the group together and continue with the
tradition and main goal to have fun as the new Captain.
Those who play paddle tennis will vouch that there is always some
comedy going on at the courts.
Interestingly, we have members from different backgrounds
— law enforcement, firemen, doctor, military, medical, therapist,
accountants, professional drivers, and more.
We just added two new members who came over from tennis since
paddle tennis has similar strokes but is less strenuous.
This month we had a great get-together party for our retiring
Captain Alan Chan, thanking him for his dedication and commitment
to the paddle tennis group. At right are some pictures from the party.
My goal while serving as Captain of the paddle tennis group is to
never lose focus of having fun at the courts. ~ Syed Ali, o2browing@
