Tomorrow begins 3 of my favorite weekends of the year.. Sunset Hills Charity Mixed Tournament, USTA Georgia Mixed League Championships in Augusta and then the Men's and Women's Doubles Sunset Hills Charity Tournament.
Tomorrow is the first day of the Sunset Hills Charity Mixed Doubles tournament at Sunset Hills Country Club in Carrollton, Ga. There are 120 players entered. It is the largest tournament in West Georgia and my guess is it will be the largest Mixed ONLY tournament in the state this year.
All players entered will gain points towards a USTA Georgia Mixed Doubles State Ranking in Mixed Combo levels 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0 and Open. Most importantly, it gets most of the tennis players together for one heck of a fun weekend. The event is extremely well organized.. first class tournament. I play a lot of tournaments in this state and this one is incredible. One unique aspect is that the committee sells Champagne and Beer tables to folks who sit at them all day an watch tennis... so there are spectators watching all day long!
All proceeds from this tournament goes to local Charities in Carrollton.... it has been going on for many years and is greatly anticipated by all tennis players in West Georgia.
I am playing 9.0 with Carrie Penley.. My rating is 5.0 and Carrie is a 4.0 so our combined rating is 9.0. Carrie is a great player and a super person.. I am looking forward to playing with her.
I am going to blog over the next three weeks these three events. I look forward to talking tennis .. as always! I am taking my camera, so look for some pictures!
