Our 2016 tennis season has begun!  Once again, I am the captain of the Matchmakers.  We play out of Radnor Valley Country Club on the USTA 3.0, ages 40+ team.  No one wants to be the captain, so I stepped up and took over so that we could have a team.  Being captain involves recruiting players, communicating with the other captains, setting up a practice time, communicating with the players (before and after a match), making sure we have enough players each week, working closely with Coach Ken, puzzling out the schedule in case of rain, reworking the lineup when players are injured/sick, overseeing the lunches that our club provides on home matches, etc.  It’s a pain in the butt, but I do it because I love the team and enjoy our season. No, I don’t get paid.  It’s another Mitzvah from the Heart.
