Last Email of Semester

Howdy!


This will be the last email of the semester! While I hold back my tears, I want to thank everyone for a great semester; we definitely did it BIG at all of our tournaments, and the shots in clean winner were as stellar as ever. Next semester we can look forward to more clean winner, the tournament in Waco, and sectionals. 

That's all for now. Keep playing over the break, and I will see y'all next semester!

And remember...always hit the tweener.

Christmas-Colors Night at Practice

Howdy!


Hope everyone had a fun and relaxing Thanksgiving break and got to eat tons o' turkey. I was fortunate enough to partake in two Thanksgiving feasts, and my stomach is currently reminding me this may not have been such a great idea. I cannot recall a time this year where I have eaten as many desserts as I did during this break. Anyway, here is some tennis club news:

Christmas-Colors Night at Practice Tomorrow

-Now that Thanksgiving is over and tomorrow's practice is the last one of the semester, we are having Christmas-Colors Night to celebrate. Make sure to come to practice in red and green, and get creative with it! You can also wear Santa hats, yellow tights (like Buddy the Elf), or your favorite Christmas sweater! 

Apparel

-All the apparel is in except for the hats! Make sure to come to practice tomorrow and pick it up!

That's all for now. Come out to practice tomorrow in Christmas colors! 

And remember...always hit the tweener.

No Practice Sunday

Howdy y'all,

Thank you to everyone that came out to the Houston Regional on Saturday.  Everyone did it sooooooooo big on Saturday, that we're all out of big for the rest of the weekend.  Because of this lack of big, there will be no practice on Sunday (today). 

Also, thank you to those that came out to the Reed Clean Up on Wednesday.  We appreciate everyone who came to help out during this semester. 

Today was the last tournament for this fall, so now your weekends will be free so you can make all the time in the world to come to practices that will still be on Wednesdays and Sundays.  There will be more tournaments in the spring, so stay tuned to emails in January/February about the spring tournaments (including Sectionals).

I guess I can write this too.....

And remember, always hit the tweener

The intraclub tournament draws are attached on the email as well as our website http://tennisclub.tamu.edu/ under the Important Info header on the right hand side.  There are A TON of y'all that signed up!!  That's awesome that so many of y'all are interested, but that does mean that matches will only be one set.  For those that don't know, that's part of the world team tennis format that we play at tournaments when we play other schools, so it'll be good practice for that anyway.
 
Singles will play in the morning (just to clarify, the times that state 8:00 through 12:00 are talking about AM start times) and doubles will be in the afternoon.  If you are being assigned to a doubles partner, meet at the courts at the scheduled start time and we'll match y'all up.

Tailgate/Idaho Game

Do you like Texas A&M football? Do you like to eat? If the answer is yes to either of these questions then come out and tailgate and watch the Aggies BTHO Idaho on September 17 with the tennis club! We will be tailgating starting at 2:30pm at the location that is attached to this email. If you have not picked up your sports pass yet, you can do so at the tailgate. We will leave tickets and sports passes at will call 30 minutes before the game.

Important Dates & Information

Howdy!


Thank you to everyone that came out to the informational! We had a great turn out, and hopefully you were able to meet some of the officers and have your questions answered. The presentation was a lot of fun, and we were thrilled to be able to show you our oscar-worthy promo video. 

If you were not able to come to the informational, DO NOT WORRY! The next time we meet will be tomorrow, Wednesday September 7 at 8:00pm at the intramural courts. The courts are located west of Reed Arena, next to Mt. Aggie. This will be our FIRST PRACTICE of the year! At this practice you will have the opportunity to ask any officers any questions you may have. 

Here is some important information and dates to keep in mind in the coming weeks:

FIRST PRACTICE - Wednesday September 7 - Intramural Courts - 8:00pm

Come join us for our FIRST PRACTICE! During practice you will be able to join our teaching courts, play "clean winner" and other games, meet a lot of people, or just come out and hit on our open courts.  

**IMPORTANT**
During our first practice you will also be able to pay dues. Dues are $50 if you pay before the following Wednesday, September 14 and $60 after that. 
This money helps the club pay for balls, shirts, social events, REC court fees, tournament entry fees, housing, and travel costs for inter-club tournaments around the state and nationals. Club members also receive up to 10% off Tennis Warehouse purchases. This truly is a bargain compared to other schools' tennis clubs. 

Tennis Club Tailgate/ Ticket Pull - September 17

Tennis Club will be pulling tickets and tailgating for the Idaho game on September 17. This is a wonderful chance to meet other members and officers, play tailgating games, eat, and watch Texas A&M BTHO Idaho.  If you would like to join us, please give your sports pass to one of the officers by September 11. 

Intra-Club Tennis Tournament - Sunday September 18

Clear your schedules for September 18 because the Texas A&M Tennis Club is having its Intra-Club tournament! This tournament is exclusively for tennis club members. For those that would like a better chance at being placed on a higher team on our ladder, this tournament is an excellent way to allow the officers to evaluate your skill level. In a few days, we will set it up to allow you to sign up for the tournament online, but for now just keep the date in mind. 

**If you do not pay dues, you will have to pay a fee to play in the intra-club tournament**

Facebook Group

Please join our Facebook group! If you plan on participating in upcoming tournaments, we stress that you join our Facebook group because it will be our main way of finding out who is planning on attending each tournament. The page can be found here http://www.facebook.com/groups/178798642183028/ .  Our first tournament will be the Austin Regional September 24th. Sign-ups for this tournament will occur at a later date, but just keep this date in mind. 

Please make sure to check out our Tennis Club webpage at http://tennisclub.tamu.edu . Here you will be able to find a list of all the officers, the challenge ladder rules, the calendar, our stunning videos, and much more! 

In case you missed the promo video, you can see it here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbMrNUQLLYA

If you want to learn more about our traditional game of "Clean Winner" please see our video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4_I4tcApWc
This video is a tutorial for those that are new to the game of "Clean Winner", and gives detailed instructions on how to play. 

For those that missed the informational, I have attached the PowerPoint presentation. 

That is all the news I have right now. Make sure to come out to practice tomorrow! 

And remember.... always hit the tweener.

Informational / First Practice

Howdy y'all!


I hope the first week of classes went well for y'all. I know I've been trying to transition from summer mode into school mode, and it's not easy. To help ease the transition here are two events to look forward to:


Tennis Club Informational - Monday September 5 -  Rudder 301 - 8:00pm

This is a great opportunity for people interested in learning more about what the club is about. We will discuss how you can join, dues, social events, and much more. This will also be a chance for you to check out our new promo video for the year!



FIRST PRACTICE - Wednesday September 7 - Intramural Courts - 8:00pm

We have waited long enough. The time has finally come. Wait for it... Wait for it... Our first practice is this Wednesday! Come join us at the intramural courts as we continue our tradition of "clean winner". We will also be introducing teaching courts this year for those that wish to learn how to play. In addition, if you just want to come hit and meet people, this is the perfect opportunity to do so. 


Make sure to join us for these events! I look forward to seeing and meeting everyone. 

And remember.... always hit the tweener.

Reed Arena Clean-Up

Howdy!


Welcome back to a new and exciting year of Texas A&M Tennis Club emails! My name is Brent Hametner, and I am the 2011-2012 secretary for the tennis club. You will be receiving emails throughout the year updating you on upcoming news and events. 

For anyone who would like to get an early opportunity to help out the tennis club and meet other members and officers, we will be having a Reed Arena Clean-Up on Tuesday, August 30 at 10:00pm to clean after the Aggie Volleyball game. This is an excellent fundraising opportunity for our organization, and we need at least 20 people to help out. We will be meeting by the loading docks down on the ramp in the back of Reed Arena. 

Consequently, if you attend at least two Reed Clean-Ups this year, we will waive your spring sectionals fee! 

Hope to see you there!

NEW FACEBOOK GROUP

Howdy y'all!!

Hope summer is going well for everyone.  In case y'all didn't know, Facebook decided to change the group settings, so we had to get a new one set up.  The members of the group won't transfer over, so join the new one here.  The group will still have the same purpose, but now we have a bright and shiny new one. 

Thanks and gig 'em!

Officers/That'll Do It

Howdy!

Thanks for coming out to Mt. Aggie on Sunday.  I kinda almost felt like I was sledding on real snow for a second.  But that'll just about do it for the year in tennis club.  There won't be any more practices because y'all should be studying for finals now. 

I would like to announce all of the officers for the 2011-2012 school year:

President
Patrick Haines

Vice President
Rudy Contreras

Treasurer
Ana Sanchez

Secretary
Brent Hametner

Competition
Scott Motl
Matt Hillestad
Laura Pelaez

Fundraising
Jonathan Brower
Michael Martin
Laci Lyckman

Social
Teaghan Avrett
Michael Burgess

Recruitment
Zack Johnson
John Pickren

Historian
Erin Mitchell
Nadine Hulleman

Congratulations to all the officers for the coming school year!!
 
Also, congrats to the men's tennis team for winning the Big 12 Championship this last weekend!!  A&M tennis is doin' it big on all levels this year.

Well, that's just about gonna do it for me.  Hopefully my emails have been bearable over the year, but I've enjoyed writing them at least.  This will be the last one for the year (except maybe one from JBrow).  I have enjoyed being secretary for the past year, but I'm psyched to be your president for 2011-2012.  I'm really looking forward to the year, and I'm pretty sure were gonna keep doin' it BIG.  I'll be seeing y'all next year!!!

And that's all he wrote.

Mt. Aggie Tomorrow at 4

Howdy!

Happy Saturday to everyone!  Tennis club is taking on Mt. Aggie tomorrow during practice (at 4).  If you aren't familiar with Mt. Aggie, it's that mound right next to the intramural courts.  It's made of astroturf that is watered and turned into a glorified slip 'n slide.  There will be plenty of sleds to go around, so come on out and get as close as you're going to get to sledding down a real mountain in College Station. 

Thanks to everyone who came out to the last practice Wednesday.  I've looked over the footage we shot and I'm pretty sure we have some Oscar material on our hands.  Best actor goes to Scott Motl for his 'chatting with babes' bit. 

See y'all tomorrow on the slopes!!

Last Practice

Howdy!
 
Tomorrow will be the last tennis practice of the year, so get one more good hit in before finals soak up all your fun.  Fyi, we're planning on shooting some video for next year's promo video at practice tomorrow.  If you want to show off your acting talents or just want to be in the video, then come on down.
Don't forget about Mt. Aggie this Sunday! 

You stay classy, Tennis Club

ELECTION RESULTS!

Howdy Ags!


It is with great excitement that I announce Patrick Haines as the next president of Texas A&M Tennis Club.  He has been a dedicated member and officer to this club for the past three years, and I can assure you that this club is in good hands for the upcoming year.  Joining Patrick as Vice President will be Rudy Contreras, yet another very dedicated and enthusiastic leader in our club.  Ana Sanchez will also be returning as Treasurer for a third consecutive year.  Once again, I cannot say enough about the dedication and enthusiasm these three elected officers have for Tennis Club, and I look forward to watching the club grow bigger and better over the next year.

It has been amazing being president of this club over the past two years.  There have been lots of changes and challenges, but overall I feel like the club has grown a lot and is primed for yet another year of domination on the Tennis On Campus circuit.  While I will no longer be involved in the day-to-day decision making of the club, I will still be around at club while I finish up my master's degree (5th year....WHAT'S UUUUPPPP!).  I hope to still be a passionate leader on whatever team I play on, and I hope that my love of the game will continue to infect all of you on the court.  Thanks for making this club the greatest collegiate tennis club in the nation, and I just hope that each of you know that no matter what team you're on (Team 1, Team 6, or Team 15) YOU MAKE THIS CLUB AMAZING AND WHAT IT IS TODAY!

Over the next week, the club will enter its transition phase and the new set of executive officers will choose the rest of the non-executive officers that will help them lead this club into the future.  Don't forget to come out to Mt. Aggie on Sunday, May 1st from 4-6pm for Tennis Club's snow day!

Thanks and Gig 'Em!

Thanks for voting for officers, your vote matters!!
 
Make sure y'all come to practice on Sunday, May 1rst from 4-6 because Tennis Club is taking on Mt. Aggie!!  If y'all have ever wondered what that large mound/small hill is doing next to the intramural courts, it's actually a skiing hill that we get to play on for the day.  It's just astroturf that's wetted down, so it's more or less a glorified slip n' slide, but it'll be a great way to end the year.  So leave the rackets in the car and be there!!  All members are welcome.
 
Also, Tennis Club has participated in several community service projects over the past year such as Big Event because we want to show that we are an organization that cares about giving back to the tennis community and the BCS area.  We want to make sure that all service by the club is represented, so if anyone has done any community service work over the last school year, tennis related or not, please email back with what, where, when, and how many hours you completed.  Thanks for helping us out!!
In case you weren't at practice on Wednesday, here's the box score from the latest Taseball (tennis baseball) game played between two of the Club League's top teams.
