#FridayNightFights Leaderboard for 1/5/18

Jeffery WINS the first fights of 2018
WINNER, 3rd time in a row

It was a brutally cold night to leave your warm homes and I thank you for coming out

And this is how the night went down

I was in the mix for 5 games with Taylor against Colleen and Megan until Lauryn arrived a little late to take my place
Annette stuck in traffic for a bit, returned to play and climbed from #21 to #14

James, Abington's Tennis Coach leaving Gold Cup said yes to filling my 12th spot and played for the first time. His serves are bombs
I was looking for dents in the court

Marianne chasing a backhand down, did not slide and took a spill into the har-tru that looked like slow motion from the viewing deck Brusied and shaken, she cleaned up her scratches and went back out to compete
Trooper!

Cold temps won't stop us
Traffic won't stop us
NOTHING will stop us

Fights Leaderboard for 12/29/17

Ross WINs the last #FridayNightFights of 2017
He edged Marco out by 2 points

Zora joined us for the first time
Sophie returned again and climbed 7 spots from 20 to 13
Marco also climbed 7 spots from 15 to 8

This last fight of the year was not without controversy
What was it you ask?
The Score
Seems the server thinks everyone knows the score and should not SHOUT IT OUT before serving
Another teaching moment
The RULE states that the server must call out the score before delivering the next serve

And BTW, NOT calling balls OUT or IN is another cause for arguments

My suggestion to recievers if the server is not doing his job, is to CALL OUT THE SCORE so the server HEARS you.
If he hears and continues, he has agreed with the score...VERBAL contract

See you all on January 5th, 2018
Have a warm and wonderful #NewYear

Fights, Leaderboard for 12/22

What an awesome night to fight for #ReindeerRights

Fights, Leaderboard for 12/8

What a fun fight night
Will is back
Jeffrey is back....and WINs it
And Joanne is new to the fold

Steve though at #1, is pursued by Jeffrey and Ross for the top spot
Lauryn, a junior, is unassumingly climbing up the ladder
And Curtis made the biggest climb from 17 to 9

Last season Taylor, another junior was at the top for many, many weeks

End of night question..."Where are my black tennis bottoms?"
