Just wanted to let you know that Kevin Pfeiffer strings tennis rackets. He charges $20.00 for the restringing; including the string at your tension. Add $5.00 if you need a new grip. Just bring the racket to school and talk to Kevin about your order.
The GSMST - PTSA held their first Tennis Round Robin at Bunten Road Park for a Student Game Day! Students, friends and family were at the event on Sunday, March 9th, 2008 from 1pm to 3pm and all enjoyed snacks and good conversation! About 20 joined the friendly tournament with 4 rounds of play that ended with prizes for all!
Here is the Line-up that
Let's use this event to practice and learn the rules. We can also help teach tennis to those who haven't played before! If you have an extra racket, bring it for someone who doesn't have one. Click on the flyer pic to enlarge the details. Thanks.
The games that we will be playing this season will be a combination of an 8 game Pro Sets and a Round Robin match. Adult tennis, High School Varsity and USTA 18 & Under Juniors- play 3 sets. All other lower Juniors in USTA , ATLA and High School Junior Varsity(JV) use the 8 game Pro Sets. It is a faster match and easier for lower level players. On Monday the boys will play this 8 game format, which means there are 8 games in their match and there will be 6 matches played that day.
Here is the revised lineup for our first match on Monday, March 3rd. Sorry for the confussion, but I was unaware of the Concert on Monday. I hope this one is better for everyone. We will miss the other players. Please reply if this line up is OK. Jack, Jimmy, David, Gary, Robert and Ed. . . I need to hear from you! Leave me a comment.
We will be having our first match on Monday, March 3rd, 2008. Sorry that the weather hasn't been very cooperative this week(TOO COLD!) and there hasn't been a practice. The boys will be playing and the rest of us will be cheering and organizing. We will work on making up a practice schedule and get ready for some other events.
I have been talking this past week with Coach Erin Lace of the Peachtree Ridge JV Girls team.
I heard from the Coach at Northview High School today. He would like to bring his JV Boys team to have a friendly scrimmage with our GSMST Boys on March 3rd. Boys...Please respond if you are available to play a match that day.
AW! This is Kevin (your Team Captain)at Clemson tennis camp in 2005! So, cute! (Any mom would say so!)
On the Printfection website under our GSMST section, I added a pocket Logo shirts for those who have been asking. I am also making an iron-on pocket patch for those interested. Let me know if you want one to iron yourself on your own shirt. I will send them to school with Kevin. Please leave a comment with your name if you want one.
Here is the Duluth HS Tennis Courts. They can be found down the main Duluth HS driveway off Brock Road. Right before the gym is another street, turn left there and follow the signs to the courts. They will be up and around to the left! Check out the 4 courts before practice starts up!
Now that we know that we are using the Duluth High School courts, we have to decide which days!? We can use the courts starting at 4:30 and ending at 6pm. I think we should choose 2 days, that way you can come to both or just 1 depending on homework.
OK-here it is. The start of a uniform. When we get together to visit other teams or play a match, lets wear black shorts, skirts or warm-up. Whatever you have to waer on the court that's black. The T-shirt should be solid white or one of the shirts purchased from the Printfection site.
