It may be a sizzling summer, but that doesn’t deter diehard tennis and POP tennis players from playing during the cooler early morning hours. Apart from tennis and POP tennis social play and clinics and tournaments, the SaddleBrooke Ranch Tennis Association (SBRTA) also serves up a series of social events throughout the year. On July 22, a late afternoon cornhole competition was held in the Sol Ballroom, and approximately 40 enthusiastic members showed up for the fun.
According to Barbara Wallis, SBRTA events committee planner, “Everyone really enjoyed playing cornhole. It was a terrific way to beat the heat and meet other tennis and pop tennis players they didn’t know as well.”
The next social event will be a ladies’ luncheon hosted by SBRTA on Dec. 4.
Looking for ways to sharpen your tennis and pop tennis skills? Join our free professional development clinics offered throughout the remainder of the year.
