Tips from our Tennis Pro ... John Ingles
hits a lob?
If you can hit the lob in the air, call "Mine," and hit the overhead. If the lob is going to bounce
behind you, call "Yours," and let your tennis partner take it. He will have an easier shot
because he will be angling towards it and will be able to see the other side.
You, on the other hand, would have to turn your back, find the ball and get to it but be far
enough away so you could have a swing. Even if you do all this, you will probably still have a
blind shot. Remember, if you call "Yours," you immediately switch to cover your partners side.

| With a shaded rest area and a water fountain for every court, a fence separating each court, two hitting walls, and never a fee for tennis, our twelve courts make the Rainberry Bay Tennis Center one of the finest in Palm Beach County. |
| Courts are assigned by lottery and posted on our TV channel 63. House guests (overnight guests) may play with residents and have the same priority for courts as residents. Day guests playing with residents are assigned the last courts available. At no time is there a fee for court time. Men who are members of the Tennis Club may sign up on a 'board" found in the Pro shop at least 48 hours in advance, indicating the date and time they wish to play and they will be assigned a game. The "Board" may be used to meet and arrange games with others of equal skill, to play when your regular opponents are not available, or, as many men do, to play all their games through the "board." |

players as well as non players, and we've all had
fun together so please come and join us in our
