Thursday morning, October 30th - MTA Gym
Reporting for Thursday October 30 We had 5 courts busy with 5-6 people waiting. The rotations went smoothly with lots of exceptional play from everyone. We all know that everything starts sooner in Newfoundland right? Well Terry started his Halloween makeup last Saturday!! And today it was perfect for his ‘patches’ outfit. It’s just too bad that he will be wearing that black eye next week as well. I have ranted a bit about eye protection while playing our sport and Terry fel

Sept 22nd at Salem School

Friday afternoon, Sept 19th - Outdoor Courts
It rained in the morning, but the courts were mostly dry by play time at 1PM. Susan, Debbie, Thomas & Pam showed up to play. Susan, the most compliant patient I ever heard of, played just the one game as her therapist recommended. Next week she's cleared for full play. She and Debbie took on Thomas & I and despite an early lead they came from behind and won the game. After Susan left, we played some 3 player games and the dinking game. It is just Thomas' second time pla
