I'm not a big fan/player of Tennis myself ... but i am willing to play if needs be

I dont consider myself to be a good Tennis player, but when i used to play it on the school yard, with a sponge ball, i used to rule the court ... with my Agilty and reaction speed

Good going Sparky, you did well. On the plus side, it's given you a chance to accidentally revisit some old stomping grounds and see what madness you can create during this seemingly temporarily return.

Umm , well im 16 and i've been playing since i was 12. But during 12-15 it was really on and off. But then after that till now its serious all the way. I play any chance i get, which is once per week with my coach, and i always go asking my schoolmates if they're on for a game of tennis.! I absolutely love it. But just yesterday i kinda strained my arm abit from learning how to put loads of spin on my kick serve.  But im the type that cant stay home all day, soo im going for badminton later i the afternoon.  :-[ :-[ :-[ So excited!  And i typically play every sport that has a net or a racket. E.g. Volleyball, Ping pong, Tennis, Badminton, Squash. Yep! I love sports, Im competitive!

I played tennis on a team, but that was years ago.  I would have to say my favorite racket was a Prince Titanium Alloy one (not sure on model number, all I know is that it was light and had alot of whumph)

Not my favorite sport, but the one I play most (due to friends loving it). I'm good in the fact I can use either hand as well nowadays. As long as it isn't smashed directly at me, I can hit it. Hit it all the time, 90% of the time.

That's cool! So what's your playing style?
Personally, I mostly use my backhand and volley ability.
Those sports you love, they're also awesome! Badminton kicks ass and table tennis as well :)
I really suck at volleyball, lol. Really bad :) Funny.
Also, for people who are crazy about tennis, I've recently discovered this online tennis MMORPG :) It's called Smash Online , you can find it at www.smashonline.eu
I'm still looking for a doubles partner as well, so if you're up for a match, just tell me. *makes new account* :P

Well I don't really have a distinct playing style. But I like to push my opponents back with a strong forehand and then sprint up and execute  a dropshot. But I give up on my drops cuz I just haven't really mastered it fully yet.


Oh and for smash online- I tried it 1year ago and I thought it was no good. Justbecause it was the only tennis game online doesn't mean it's worth playing. Frequent lags and stuff.

Hope to hear from you soon!
