How do you guys make tennis friends or find groups to play with through Reclub?
I feel like I’m running into the same problem a lot of the other members here are facing as they start their tennis journey alone.
None of my friends are really into tennis, they’re more interested in other sports like pickleball, so I’m trying to find tennis groups or clubs that I can join for regular/casual games (and also the added bonus of making new friends who enjoy the sport as well)!
I’ve seen a lot of people recommend Reclub for finding tennis communities nearby, but honestly, it’s been a little intimidating. There are so many clubs, open plays, and group chats that I don’t really know where to start and also feel like I’m already late to the party.
As a beginner who mostly trains solo, showing up to a meetup by myself feels pretty scary ngl. I don’t have a tennis buddy who can come with me, so it feels like I’m just throwing myself into a group of people who already know each other. 🥹
For those of you who started out alone, how did you break into the community? Did you just sign up for an open play and show up? Any tips for making that first step a little less awkward?
