BEGINNERS @ Pullen

Pullen Park (map)

Selected By: "Ab" Abayomi

A couple advanced players will be on hand to run drills, give you some pointers, and most importantly getting you comfortable hitting a bunch of balls and moving around on the court. Although not required, the person most likely to get the most out of this event are those who are also taking lessons.

Timeline:
2:00 Say hello, pay $3 fee and warmup on any open court (new balls provided)
2:10 I'll huddle everyone together, do introductions and get things started
4:00 Tennis Ends

Where are the courts?
From off of Ashe avenue, take the Pullen Park entrance (Adaba dr) all the way to the end of the road. The tennis courts are on the hill you see in front of you on your left. Park and take the walkway to the courts.

What happens to the money I pay?
Your $3 event fee goes towards new balls, court reservations, liability insurance, and meetup.com website fees.

How does the waiting list work?
Members on the waiting list receive an email whenever a Yes spot opens up. Whoever responds first gets in. This format is to cut down on the number of people that unknowingly get moved off the waiting list then don't show up.

What is your RSVP policy?
*If you sign up, you must show up.
*3 No-Shows in 4 months - banned for a month
*5 no-shows in 5 months - your membership is revoked
*Rain or huge chance of rain - no-shows are excused
*If your plans change, please update your RSVP to 'no' ASAP. The earlier you open a spot, the better chance others have of RSVPing and guaranteeing full attendance.

    Please alert one of the organizers to adjust if I accidentally marked you as a no-show. I marked everyone who didn't sign the sign-up sheet. Thanks for coming to play on a hot, sunny day. 5-51

    Had some first time beginners and some who are trying to get back into playing. Good group of players. It was fun!

    This was perfect for me, since I'm a true beginner! The organizers are excellent, and met some very nice people too! Everyone is very patient! Can't wait to do it again!

    Great for new players and rusty old ones.
  • Khurrum
    Good way to get back into the game. The drills are helpful in re-engaging placement.
