A Tennis Blog by Ron Pollack
Everyone knows that Mimi, my wife and I, truly enjoy a game of tennis. We are now recommending McMullen lessons to everyone because I know anyone will get the same results from Chall Tennis Academy When I have the time, I am looking forward to picking up a racquet on a regular basis again. Now, my wife Mimi, always comes home happy with her game. (I used to play competitively as a kid, but then tennis took a back seat to investing, to kids and other pursuits.) But I haven't given up on the sport. Florida just so happens to be huge on tennis. Even after buying a house with a tennis court and going to some top notch tennis camps we still felt frustrated. I have still have not had enough time to resurrect my game, but Mimi has been revitalized by Erick Chall, head pro at the McMullen Tennis Center. Eric's technique seems to be incomparable to others through Mimi's experiences with playing "on again, off again" tennis. Eric’s enthusiasm for the sport is delightfully contagious. Since my son regained interest his game went room a few lucky shots to an actual tennis player to be reckoned with.
Now I am letting everyone know about my <a href='http://ronpollack.net/'>Ron Pollack blog</a> that details some of the wonderful resources we now have in Clearwater.
