Who Knew?

THE LADIES OF TEAM GEORGIA KNEW

The ladies of the 3.0 Georgia team come from a wide array of backgrounds, but their bond for the game they love has brought them all together. “Without tennis we probably never would have met or come together like we have,” said captain Heather Gray.

This diverse team has players whose ages range from 26 to 53, and has players from the Northeast to Poland. Two of the team members had to sit out of State because they just had babies, but still the ladies pulled through earning their spot in Mobile.

“Tennis is our social activity. We are all avid tennis players and fans and several of us from the team went to the Andy Roddick/Robby Ginepri exhibition match last December,” said Gray.

We are friends on and off the court and spending four days together at State only deepened our bond with each other. Co-captain Paula Boulwane wrote a poem after State describing the team and the experiences they shared. Who knew these Atlanta girls were going to Mobile? They sure did.
