Emma won an award today for most improved player!









I'm missing a picture of 2 more of the coaches, Coach Chase and Coach Chris. I coach the kids on the lower courts starting at age 4, up to 15 (red and orange ball courts).

Last spring Emma took a set of beginner group lessons. Then over the summer she took 2 summer camps and I worked with her as well. She quickly progressed from the red ball, to the orange ball, to the green ball court in under a year. Many of the kids Emma plays with have been taking lessons for 4 or more years. Now she's on the second to the top green ball court and will start match play and tournaments in the fall!

3.5 18+ Business team went to state again this year in Rome, GA!


Captain's gift... cute flops!!!





Coffee while waiting for delayed match to resume. Rain, Rain, go away! Lol, everyone texting their families and sending pictures to each other:)




Thursday night crew arrived. Captain's meeting in Sandy's room to receive bag/brag tags for going to state, State Tee-shirts, and to get the early morning lineup.










"Mama" Sandy, our poor captain, was exhausted!!! She deserves a gold medal for putting up with us! We drove her crazy!  She is so organized and keeps us on our toes and on schedule. A very difficult task!





 
Love these ladies!!!

Mom and Dad came in town to help Keith with girls and take them to school and practices and feed them... while I was at state. So thankful for my family!



Sold some of the girls' outgrown toys on neighborhood Facebook. Looks like they went to good homes!!!
