Paddle Tennis
I started playing paddle tennis about two years ago. I
first tried tennis. However, I did not like it because the court
was too big. Then, I went out to the paddle tennis court and
realized that it was the perfect size for me to play and have a
good time. I then practiced with my husband for a couple of
months before I actually played with the rest of the players.
At the start I wasn't very good, but after a few more months
I became a little better at the game. Now, as a great deal of
the players will tell you, I have become a real force out on the
courts. I mostly enjoy laughing and joking with the other
players while I'm playing. You know when I'm playing because
you can hear me yell throughout the complex. I enjoy working
and I have a full-time job. I would be out on the court every
day if I were not working. I would like to see more ladies out
on the court so that they can have a good time socializing.
Now, I try to be the first out on the courts and the last to leave.
I have a great love for the sport and I want more players to
come out and enjoy all the fun and good times that can be had
when playing paddle tennis. ~ Shao Carrasco
