Profile Picture for tennis_man

Since I was a kid hitting acorns across my dad’s field with an old wooden tennis racket, I've been in love with the game of tennis . I tried out for our middle school tennis team in 7th grade and made 2nd seed after playing 4 weeks. I wish I could say I was good, but the school team was just very bad.

Want to keep track of tennis related things on this propeller account. Rock on!!

    Thank-you for the kind words. Unfortunately, tennis has taken a back seat in my life - we live in an area where you just can't find anyone else who plays. I've tried to get some interested without success.

    I don't think taxpayers money pay for prisoners to play tennis or golf do you? How much should each prisoner be given to purchase tennis equipment? “In prison, those things withheld from and denied to the prisoner become precisely what he wants most of all.” - This is a quote from Albert Einstein. I guess we’re getting some Australian prisoners really excited about professional tennis?
    Prison Tennis, yeah!!!

    Tennis at Bali's Kerobokan prison

    Thank God for the competition today,” Rush said. “It’s good for us here. To keep us active, and I like to be active, so do all the prisoners here.”

    Chan and Rush formed a doubles team to take on the finest from Indonesia’s Immigration Department as the prison opened its doors to the media for the tournament.

    Prisoners and public servants traded ground strokes as an organ played music in the background similar to a baseball game anda prison choir serenaded about 100 spectators, among them Australia’s consul in Bali, Bruce Cowled.

    The event was the idea of Yon Suharyono, the prison governor, who revealed that the many of the Bali nine, the young Australians convicted of trafficking heroin, were keen tennis players. “They love it,” he said. “They play tennis almost from morning till noon, all day until evening.
