My husband and I decided to play T2 tennis for the first time after hearing from friends and other ALTA players about the informal format and the fun that everyone was experiencing. So we enrolled in Mixed Doubles - but not as partners. Instead, he's playing with his ALTA Mixed partner from their A level Vickery team, and I signed up with her husband. We are playing 2.5 and they are much higher.

Scheduling matches has been easy. When Jeff and I play, Debbie and Bob show up to cheer us on. And we are undefeated thru round #1 of playoffs! We watch Debbie and Bob play (I thought T2 was intended to be relaxed and laid back?) who also won their first playoff round. Then, it's a good excuse for the 4 of us to go out to dinner to brag about our match! Of course, we get some guidance from the "pros", but we take it in stride and remind them both that we haven't lost (they are 18-2 overall including ALTA and T2 Mixed). Ha!

It's been a hilarious experience! Fun, good tennis, food, exercise, and a million laughs! And we stay happily married because trying to blend playing levels and play with my husband would not be a positive thing. Same with Debbie and Jeff, who is just getting back into tennis.

For Bob and me, it's a great release from the long hours in real estate. Who knows, maybe Jeff and I will win the City Championship!

If you play tennis, try T2!
