April is a month that includes Passover, Easter and Ramadan. Especially, under these circumstances, we reflect and express thanks for all of our blessings – which include you. We are so grateful that you have accompanied us on our journey, since our club was closed on March 16th. Despite being apart, we have been so…
May you have a beautiful day, filled with hope, love and chocolate. Happy Easter, Auggie.
Tennis friends are not the only ones missing each other. Several of the tennis professionals and staff had a reunion on Zoom today. It was wonderful to see each other and catch up. Everyone is healthy and sends their best wishes.
Members of the CJWTL Monday B team, led by captain Tracey Balestrieri, donated lunches to their teammate, Diane Albala, and her colleagues, who have worked so hard in the ER at Robert Wood Johnson Hospital in Hamilton. Thanks so much to Diane, and all of the dedicated men and women, who have helped us navigate…
Since it’s Sunday, we thought we would take a break from tennis and share some tips on how to boost your immune system, using acupressure.

After filming our Episode 10 – lobbing – we knew we would receive many comments asking where Auggie was. So we have two segments for your enjoyment. I guess that is why experts say that poodles are smart!
If you are restricted to the indoors, practice your racquet skills or rally with a balloon, stuffed animal, etc. Don’t forget to take advantage of this time for cross training, such as yoga, stretching, strength work… As you can see, Auggie loves our downward dog best. Have a great day.
Today, we graduate to rallying over an object. Since all tennis courts are closed, select any object that is appropriate height. Auggie was sunning and somewhat confident that we would rally high enough and not hit her. Be well.
Today, we add direction to the rallying skills that we have practiced. Judy will hit crosscourt and Cos will hit down the line – making a figure 8 pattern. Don’t forget to turn your shoulders and set the racquet to your target. Use a wall if necessary. Have fun and be well.
