Hi there,

If anyone living near S10 is interested in playing Tennis (preferably) or badminton, please let me know. I am reasonably good at both these games, though not a pro! And I am open to the idea of playing with anyone just as long as the person is really interested in the game.

Cheers!

Hello. I'd like to play tennis in S10, but not at this cold time of year! This is table tennis season :P

Hey SilentStatic,

In case you love playing Table Tennis, you might wanna go to the English Institute of Sport (next to the Don Valley Stadium) on Mondays at around 8.00 pm You will find lots of TT players there, beginners as well as champs and it is great fun as well as good practice. I generally go there when I am able to leave work on time, and have a nice time whenever I play there!

And I found out about this venue from this forum :)

Thanks a lot, my dear forumers :thumbsup:

I have not played tennis for some years but very motivated for a restart.
We can try a game and to see if my level is not too weak for you...

Hi Nicolas,

It has been a while since I have played too! So I would not be too concerned about how well you play. All that I am looking out for is someone to hit around with. I can play anytime after this Thursday, as I am working till Thursday noon. Also, as I stay at Crookes, the outdoor courts near Crookesmoor (behind the University) would be convenient for me. Where do you stay, and where would you like to play?

Just let me know if you can make it anytime from Thursday to Sunday.

Please PM me in case this is okay with you!

Cheers!

A couple of us from the forum get together and have a mixed doubles match at Graves Tennis and Leisure Centre (S8 ).
If anyone fancies playing feel free to send me a PM.

Hi Nicolas,
I can make it on either Friday or Saturday or both. Afternoon sounds good. I had gone to play there at about 9.30 today morning and it was so cold - my fingers could barely hold the racket!!! Please confirm when you would like to play. And if you would like, you could PM me about how we can meet.

Cheers!
