Met a guy this summer that has been playing in tournaments all over for the last 2 decades. Going to start going to where he trains when ever he gets back into it, he had a torn rotator cuff in the spring that side lined him for a few months after having surgery on it.

Yep, just signed up - first post. Kinda cool place. Been playing since 1992. I've been looking to create a forum for wheelchair tennis somewhere for wheelchair users and for ABs that have wheelchair tennis questions. Anyone aware of a forum that is around? I started one at the link below recently but am wondering if anyone knew of more...
