Tennis
 

Anyone know of any tennis courts in or around the Moultonborough/Center Harbor area? TIA.

There are courts on Playground Drive in Moultonborough.

Have fun!

There are courts in Center Harbor at the end of 25B on the right. (heading towards Meredith)

Rating
 

Are you also looking for competition? I was rated 5.0, 8 years ago, but now maybe 4.0/4.5 and out of shape. :-)

Well considering I've never heard of this rating system you speak of, I'm probably better off with a lesson than competition. ;)

Rating System
 

Its all good. The ratings go from 2.0 to 5.5 and then "open" and they are used for USTA sanctioned tournaments. 2.0 is a beginner and 5.0 is usually a college player.

Meredith has six new, hard surface green courts, tucked away, down the dirt road behind the bowling alley and baseball field. Usually, there's maybe 2-3 empty courts.

Hey FLL,....
 

We all know you're just trying toeggmeon. "And that ain't no new breakfast dish"!! Here I am playing tennis in 105 degrees down here in Dallas/Fort Worth, when there are plenty of empty courts in my northern homeland at 60 degrees.... Paybacks a b____!!!! :) :) :D :liplick:

Here's looking for tennis lessons for a so-called adult......namely myself! Anyone know where to go for some tennis lessons in the greater metropolitan tri-town area of Meredith-Moultonborough-Laconia-Plymouth?

Anyone know where there's public tennis courts with decent usable back-boards?


If Serena Williams brought her raquet to the lakes regions, what tennis court location would likely be her first choice for a tennis-practice, vacation area?

Where would she play?

I hate to rag on FLL, but I couldn't let this go by:

"tri-town area of Meredith-Moultonborough-Laconia-Plymouth?"

Wouldn't a tri-town area consist of three towns?

I know tennis has a funny way of counting, 15-30-40-game, so maybe, when discussing tennis, tri-town can be 4.

Too cold to go boating...there's always tennis at the very nicely built and located SIX MEREDITH HARD SURFACE TENNIS COURTS. With November 1 almost here, there's still about one month or so of court use left before the snow covers the courts.

Open to anyone wearing smooth tennis sneakers, no charge to use, and located about 1/2 mile down the dirt road just past the bowling alley on Route 3 at the ball field.

Yes, there's still a few out there playing tennis in the 30 & 40 degree temps. Just dress correct, and pretty fast one gets warmed up what with the tennis back & forth.

Never too late to go play tennis.....and for about twenty bucks...Wal-Mart has your raquet.....and three balls for 1.50.

Meredith Outdoor Tennis; changing the way that people think about October and November. Whoever built those courts knew how to do it because the rain seems to drain off quickly.

I keep hoping that Serena Williams will put in an appearance. Hey SERENA......meet me at the six Meredith Courts! Is she really six feet tall? :):):):)

...outdoor tennis is happening!
 

....so guess what....the six Meredith tennis courts are all ready for tennis....the six nets and privacy screens are up....the snow is all gone from the green rubberized court surface....and it's time for some tennis...

...one caution....the 1/4 mile dirt road to get to the tennis courts is temporarily closed due to mud season....it is wet and soft and muddy so you need to park either at the community center or the bowling alley and hike in and carry your tennis sneakers so's you don't muddy up the courts...


...a clean tennis court is a happy tennis court...!:)
