And so, It begins!

Howdy Ags!

I hope everyone had a good first day and is ready for the coming semester. I am very excited for this year and hope you are excited too! I look forward to seeing all of you as the semester rolls on.

We have a few things coming up, so lets dive in!

First thing's first, we have our first informational this Sunday, September 3rd,  at 4:30 pm in Rudder 302. Then, on Monday, September 4th, we will be hosting our second informational at 5:30 pm in MSC 2404. These informationals are mainly for new, incoming members but you are all welcome to come and share to them about the Club and what it means to you. We won't be having a booth for Tennis Club at the MSC Open House but we will be handing out flyers.

Also, we will be starting our practices next week on Wednesday, September 6th. Our practice times have changed and we will now be having practice Wednesdays and Thursdays, 7-9 pm.

Our Ranking Tournament will be held September 23rd-24th. As of right now, you can sign up for two events out of singles, doubles, and mixed doubles. It will be held at the Intramural Courts across Reed Arena. Our challenge rules have also changed slightly so make sure you look at the updated rules, located on our website. If you like the way it looks, don't forget to give a shout out to our historians, Nicole "Kitty" Ballas, Hector Pleitez, and Dylan Ritter.

The following Saturday, September 30th, we will be attending our first TOC Tournament in Arlington. The Saturday after, we will be attending the Beaumont Tournament, too. I hope you're ready, because we have nonstop tournaments coming up so be sure to be attentive and sign up!

Membership dues will be $75 for early registration if paid by September 10th, $80 for on time on September 22nd, and $85 for any time after that. We will have card readers and computers for dues at the informational and at practice next week, so be sure to be ready to pay.

We have a great team of officers this year who care a lot about the club so feel free to ask us any questions. Lets BTHO the 2017-2018 school year Ags!

Thanks and Gig 'Em,
