Good Monday morning, everyone.
We’re waiting a few more weeks until the newsletter gets much bigger before changing the format a little to accommodate another level of expansion.
Happy to report that Conga Sports added a free event for novice players called ‘Friendly Racket Meetup’ for Saturday, August 3 in the afternoon. Scroll down for more information.
Btw, if you want to read my report from 2 days at the Wimbledon Championships this year, please sign up for Racket Business, the free monthly newsletter. I’m comparing it quite favorably with the US Open.
Please email me with updates or if you want your programs added or you can also use WhatsApp (Rich Neher / 818-809-8327)
Thank you!
Rich Neher, CEO
