| SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | MAY 2016 | 55 Join our group and practice with us from 12 to about 2:30 pm in our Monday through Saturday open play sessions. There is no cost to join our group. To maximize play, we select partners from those present. To keep things interesting, most like to play for quarters. The group also has six teams that play three 11-13 week seasons per year, beginning in early September and ending in late June. Each Thursday, six teams compete in our Billiard Room and one away tournament is played against teams from either Four Seasons or the Sand Trap Sports Bar & Grille. Team participation is not required, but group members may want to join a team for any of those seasons. These team games are one-on-one; no partners. It costs $15 per season to join a team and compete in the weekly matches. Like handicaps in golf, players establish individual skill levels, which helps even out the competition. Not sure if you want to join? Come play with us, or just watch. Get to know us and the game we play. Pop Tennis We have had so many new and fun members join our club, and their excitement and enthusiasm for POP Tennis is really contagious! Our membership is now at near 80 and still growing! We had a great turnout for our first clinic on Thurs., March 24, and fellow club member and tennis professional, Tracy Galongo, instructed even those totally new-to-any-sport people that there is a place within our game for them. Our April 9 and 10 event, including clinics, fun mixer play, demonstrations, raffles, prizes, etc., followed by a cookout on April 10 at the South Clubhouse, will surely have been a great event for all our new and old players! We will follow up with the results of this in next month's magazine! Our current schedule of play is Mon., Wed., Fri., Sat. at 10 am and Tues., Thurs., Sun. at 8 am. We also play Tues. and Thurs. evenings at 5 pm. For further information, please call Jeannie McGuire (951) 845-8817 or Sally Wolfe (951) 263-5908. Paddles are available for new players, and we ask that everyone please observe the "no perfume/no cologne" policy to help all our players who have allergies. Please check out the bulletin board adjacent to the courts for information on activities, events and upcoming clinics. See you at the courts!
