Just wanted to update:

We sold out in 11 days!! Guys, girls, if you don't think the demand is out there, you are WRONG!! I expected 10 tops and sold 25 like nothing and have had women almost 200 miles away wanting to get in.

We need more of these in all areas.

After my clinic I am planning on starting a women's doubles league and even more to support the Atlanta area ladies. I am hoping we can have some "guest stars" come in at some point and play a round.

We held the clinic yesterday and it was a blast and a big success. I hope that all 25 women continue playing and that at least a few of them start competing.

Here are pics from the event:
