Conga Sports Drumbeat 34 for 2/3/2025

A weekly racket sports resource with timely information about the local Tennis, Pickleball, Padel, and POP Tennis scene

Together with LA TENNIS

Table of Contents

Good Monday morning, everyone.

We were adding more tennis and pickleball venues/programs this week. One provider, James Skuratofski, does both in Huntington Beach. Look him up under Orange County.

I’m happy to see that acclaimed coach and author Susan Nardi has decided to add her tennis classes under Los Angeles. She teaches out of the Westchester Tennis Center in L.A.

Speaking about Susan Nardi, I heard that the 2024 “Absolute Adult Camp” in Sweden and Norway was so successful, that LA Tennis will do it again in July this year. Stay tuned for more information soon.

By the way, if you know a coach, teaching pro, club, program, or event that should be listed here, please connect me with the person who runs it. Appreciate it!

Please email me with updates or let me know if you want your programs and events added. And please share this newsletter with your friends.

Thank you.

Have a wonderful week!

Rich Neher, CEO, Conga Sports
