Day 14 - JTT NY Practice
Wow, 14 days and counting. Fun group, fun day, impressed with the improvement. Thanks for coming Alison, Ali, Katie, Karli, Sawyer, Ryan, Justine and Peter. Impressed with the consistency, took only 2 balls for Ali, Justine, Katie and Karli to get to 139. Great. Seeing better court movement, only helps. Like to thank Katie and Alison for coming up with a new game, "TAG TEAM TENNIS", talk about moving your feet, well in this you move everything. I like it. Weather wise, perfect tennis day, humid, no wind and in the 70's.
