I haven't played tennis in over two decades. And never doubles.

Any tips? I need a crash course.

This is a big NSV for me as when I was heavier people would never invite me out to play anything!

No advice here, just a congratulations! Have fun!

I love tennis!!! I got 4 Varsity letters in high school but it was in singles. The only times I played since were casual get-togethers.

I never liked doubles as I'm a control freak!!

So happy for you though, it's going to be so fun!!

1. Hope that your partner is better than you.

2. Stand by the net - with your racket in front of your face - and swat violently, at a downward angle, at anything that comes near you.

OMG Joe, too funny.

I watched an episode of The Middle from a couple of weeks ago where the daughter (who is not athletically inclined at all on the show) ended up on the high school tennis team. I thought of Ian during the whole show, too funny. She was getting serves whizzing by her that could have cut her hair off LOL!

Thanks Joe. Very good tips! And well taken!
