Okay so about 6 months ago I found out that Idaho Falls has an adult tennis league.\u00a0 I had a friend call me up and ask if I wanted to join her team.\u00a0 I was totally psyched about joining their team.\u00a0 However found out that I couldn’t join because I’m ranked a 1\/2 a point higher than their team.\u00a0 The reason I’m ranked that\u00a0 way is because I played in high school.\u00a0 That was 14 years ago and I really haven’t played since.\u00a0 So I’m really rusty and it doesn’t seem fair.\u00a0 I ended up joining another team. It was a real hassle. Game play started at the beginning of June.\u00a0 We have played about 6 or 7 games and I’ve only won a couple of those.\u00a0 That’s okay because I remember the real reason I like to play.\u00a0 It’s fun.\u00a0 It really doesn’t matter if I win as long as I’m having fun with the people we play.\u00a0 We only have a couple more games left in the season.\u00a0 I’m a little relieved that it will be over soon because we have had issues with rescheduling rained out games. Also having problems with scheduling issues within my own family. \u00a0\u00a0 It is also a little tough on the budget.\u00a0 We have a membership fee, a league fee, you have to buy your own balls (new can for every home game),\u00a0 gas (my team is in Rexburg 30 min drive), and recently I’ve had to pay a babysitter.\u00a0 I’ve easily spent over 100 dollars for playing for only 1 and 1\/2 months.\u00a0 So I’m hopeful that my husband will be willing to take me to the courts on Saturday mornings or afternoons.\u00a0 That way I can still keep up a level of skill and also still have fun doing something I love.<\/p>\n
