How often do you find yourself on the brink of giving up adult recreational tennis? Are you struggling to maintain the joy of playing, feeling pressured to win all the time, or affected by others’ attitudes towards the game?
We are here to tell you don’t quit adult rec tennis!
In this episode, Carla joins Carolyn and Erin to discuss why you shouldn’t quit adult recreational tennis (even though a few of us have wanted to)! We explore the silver lining of not winning every time and the importance of enjoying the journey rather than just focusing on the destination. We discuss the significance of finding your ‘tribe’ in tennis – the people who will be your cheerleaders in every match, every practice, and every triumph.
Get ready to rekindle your love for the sport and don’t quit adult rec tennis!
