Network Tennis Club
Network Tennis
Network Tennis is a tennis club that I have organized in Tehachapi. We play at the HS courts each Saturday morning 9am-noon (8am in summer) until winter shuts us down. The goal is to get Tehachapi tennis players out onto our 'public' courts and have fun. We quit playing during the winter months (Dec-Mar) except for the occasional break-out.
8:00AM Saturday @ Tehachapi High School
Tehachapi does not have a tennis club or a tennis facility. In order to bring Tehachapi out of the horse ages, I am providing a format where tennis players can gather. This is currently happening every Saturday morning at the HS tennis courts, except during the winter. This is not yet a formal club. It is merely a collection of names and email addresses that I use to inform the tennis players about schedules of play, tennis clinics and weather alerts.
I do some warm-up drills with the adults at 8am before they split off to play. After that I'm there for fun and games with kids and beginners. I've been very busy with kids (under 14), so if you're a beginner who needs some help you had better arrive at 8AM.
Join Us
Network tennis is a free, on-line tennis club. Send me an email, ask to be on the mailing list and you become a member. Unsubscribe whenever you want. I would also enjoy talking with you about your tennis and what you would like regarding tennis in Tehachapi.
I know most of the players in the area and enjoy bringing in new players to meet similar people. I think I'm doing a great job as everybody keeps returning and having fun.
My Vision
The ultimate goal is to get a tennis center built here in Tehachapi. Four courts, lights and a club house would be a nice start. It's not my goal to run it, I just need to have it. There are now enough of us that we should meet with Parks & Rec ( TVRPD ) and make progress in that direction. At the moment, they are totally unaware of any need for tennis courts or the existence of tennis players.
