Man, am I excited for this weather! The board and I have an exciting next couple of weeks planned for y'all and we can't wait to see you out there! Be sure to mark your calendars!
🏡 GARAGE SALE FUNDRAISER (11.4 & 11.5)
ATC will be raising funds for continued support for our lovely Jason. If you have any items that you would like to donate, please bring the items to social tennis in the coming weeks or coordinate with a board member. Also, reach out to the board if you are available to volunteer. The last day to submit items will be 11.3 (Friday).
Have nothing to donate to the sale? That's okay! His gofundme is linked below!
🎃 PROMISCUOUS HALLOWEEN (10.31)
Break out the boos and the screams and bring your costumes to Tuesday's social tennis on the 31st! We're postponing the mid-month, Tuesday Promiscuous Doubles to the end of the month so everyone can have the opportunity to play against all the scary Sallys and the *ehem* promiscuous Beckys. The end of the night comes down to a vote of all Promisucous Doubles participants to vote on the best costume! Prize included!
🧍🏽♂️ NOVEMBER SUNDAY SINGLES (Sundays in November)
We heard you loud and clear! For November, we will be offering Sundays as a singles option for those who want to practice more singles match-play! This is only temporary as we test the waters with the new social tennis option. This also means Sundays will be limited to just 8 players max.
🌈 WATERLOO CREEK SHOW - DRAG SHOW (11.15)
Wednesday, November 15 @ 6:30 PM Pride Night FREE Music: 7 PM – Papi Siii 8 PM – Vertarias & Friends feat. She23, Keira Nova, Tribe Mafia + Austin Drag All-Stars Vendors: Shop and support LGBTQIA+-owned small businesses and nonprofit organizations, including Ashwell Health + Wellness.

🎾 AUSTIN TENNIS CLASSIC (11.19)
Registration for the first annual Austin Tennis Classic is open! Head on over to the Events tab and register with a partner! There are two divisions (7.0 & 8.0) where you and your doubles partner's ranking must add up to the division you are signing up for! (Two 4.0s will only be eligible for the 8.0 division, a 3.5 and a 4.0 would need to register up into the 8.0 division, etc.) The tournament offers a consolations bracket so everyone is guaranteed at least two matches! Matchplay will begin at 8 a.m. and end at around 2pm.

I'll be sending out an email soon about the Houston tournament so if you're registered, keep an eye out for that!
