Wednesday Night Tennis! (Desert Breeze)
Details
VENUE (Please Read):
Wednesday Night Tennis! at Desert Breeze starts at 6:00 PM as we would like to secure two courts early.
The RSVP limit is 12 players. Those on the waitlist may arrive at any time, but may prefer to arrive at 7:30 PM when earlier players depart.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Corona del Sol has a contractor resurfacing all 8 courts at once, instead of one side (4 courts) at a time. Resurfacing will end no sooner than March 30.
Meanwhile, I am looking for good replacement venues at 4-court parks and 8 court high schools. Tempe, McClintock, and Marcos de Niza high schools are in disrepair or poorly lit now, so I will contact Mountain Pointe, Chandler, and Mesquite high schools for night tennis in the near and perhaps long term.

Answers to FAQ's (frequently asked questions may be answered here):
- Finding our group is easy. Everyone is friendly and will let you know if they are with Chandler Tennis Meetup.
- Expect low to mid intermediate level tennis (NTRP 2.5-3.5) and, occasionally, players at higher levels.
- Beginners are welcome. Please let fellow participants know your level so everyone can have a great player experience.
- Set play includes no faults on the first serve of the night only ('first ball in') for each player from the deuce side.
- If players are waiting, four game sets, with a seven-point tiebreak, are preferred. No-advantage games are helpful as well.
- Instruction outside of the Meetup is encouraged. USTA sanctioned private instruction is best, followed personal video analysis locally or via social media such as https://2minutetennis.net/.
Health Precautions. Do not play if you:
- Are exhibiting any symptoms of the coronavirus: mild to severe
respiratory illness with fever, cough, or difficulty breathing. - Have been in contact with someone in quarantine for COVID-19 or other contagions.
