Robert indoor tennis vs Greenwood

It's been 8 days since the boys got to play tennis.  They've had a few practices, but the weather on game days caused a few rainouts.

Robert was all set to play Carroll County on 3/13, but it was canceled.
The same thing happened for their matches against St. Francis on 3/14.

The next schedule games were against Greenwood (they are from Bowling Green).  Since they traveled so far, they didn't want to cancel the games due to rain.  Coach Arteburn secured courts at the Louisville Racquet club.

Robert played third singles against a very talented and experienced player.  Indoors has a very different feel - the ball is faster.  Robert tried to beat his opponent at his game, but that didn't work.







Actually the whole NOHS team struggled.  We lost 5-0.

Robert was so disappointed that we got a membership at the Springhurst Tennis Club and he and Mark practiced more that night.  More on accuracy and ball placement - less on speed and power.

Practice makes Perfect
