Is it time to restring your racquet?
First try to remember when your racquet was last strung. The general rule for
restringing is: take the amount of times you play tennis each week, and that is how
many times per year you should restring. It is always a good idea to coordinate your
restringing times with the seasonal temperature changes. Thus, making early spring a
great time to get your racquet restrung. If you have any questions on racquets, strings
or accesories please stop by the pro shop or contact one of our pros.
Holly Hilgemeier reaches Girls 14s Final of ZAT
The May ZAT was held in Ft Worth on the 1st & 2nd. Holly Hilgemeier found
herself down 6-9 in the third set tie-breaker in her first round match. With her
opponent only needing one point to close out the match Holly dug in and won the
next five points straight to win the match. After advancing to the finals, she faced,
Emma Etria, her toughest opponent of the tournament. With eight of the thirteen
games played in the match going to deuce, this was a close contest. Unfortunatley for
Holly, Emma was on top of her game and played a great match to claim the title.
Jamie McGowan also competed in the May ZAT and was able to reach the
semi-finals. Jamie met up with Emma Etria, in the semis, and was the first of the GT
