Second Annual At the Net Tennis Event and Tournament - October 18, 2003


The positive feedback continues to pour in from those that attended the second annual "At The Net" Tennis Event held on October 18, 2003. It was a day full of fun for all players and participants and their families and guests.

On the courts, the play was fun and competitive. The intermediate level, final doubles match pitted the team of Rich Grodin and Kurt Spoerer versus Kenny Dichter and Andy Timmerman with Dichter and Timmerman prevailing. While the advanced level, final doubles match ignited the crowd as Brendan Murphy and John Rives overpowered Pavel Shklyar and Mark Green.

The renowned US Open Doubles team, the Jenson brothers, joined us for the day and conducted several tennis clinics, posed for photos, played matches with participants and ran the fastest serve competition, won by Steve Cronin with a serve at an astonishing 115 miles per hour!

Off the courts, there was plenty of entertainment for the players and spectators. Music was provided throughout the day by the all so talented "Central Park Guitar Man." Free massages, nutritional analysis, sports therapy and chiropractic treatments were available to all players and spectators, compliments of RM Training. There was a Pop the Balloon booth that featured many great prizes as well as a children's entertainment area with free entertainment provided by Jody Prusan. The event featured over seventy-five amazing auction and sweepstakes items, including VIP tickets to the Wiggles at Madison Square Garden, World Series Tickets and the opportunity to record a rap song in a studio with an up-and-coming musical rap artist.

All of those in attendance were treated to a fun-filled, day including a buffet breakfast and lunch as well as an afternoon awards ceremony with refreshments. Players received "At the Net" T-shirts, ski hats, baseball caps, gift bags and more, compliments of American Eagle, as well as a guarantee to play at least one match on center court in Arthur Ashe Stadium.

The day was a fun time for all, and we have already begun preparations for the Third Annual "At the Net" Tennis Event and Tournament with plans to make it even better than the first two.
