[quote=Anonymous][quote]A lot of odd attacks on tennis in this thread - tennis is actually thriving in this area. I imagine that none of you have heard of the AA tennis league or the LGBTQ tennis league that exist in this area. Tennis is a pretty diverse sport around here, and easily accessible with a $20 racquet and can of balls.[/quote]

Nothing against tennis at all - my child plays. It may be a sport that a diverse group of adults enjoys playing in some sense, but it is a sport that has a rather high $ entry barrier - you can't get good at it by taking lessons through the city etc. (beyond very intro lessons) or on your own.  You really need to pay for a good instructor.  Maybe that is why some people are down on it.

That being said, we have never had a problem finding a court for him to play on in the city.  On a few occasions, futsal was happening on our most desired court (GW), but we just moved over to the one by the Mount Vernon Rec center or Potomac Yards and it was fine.

Outdoor tennis is not a winter sport anyway.  We have been lucky to find a few weekends when it was warm enough and the wind was not too strong, but were not expecting to.[/quote]
