Welcome to Tweener—where tradition meets tongue-in-cheek, and the country club tennis scene gets the honest commentary it never asked for but desperately needs. If you’ve ever found yourself in a doubles match wondering whether your partner was trying to win points or wage psychological warfare, you’re in the right place.

This isn’t your typical tennis blog. We won’t bore you with cookie-cutter tips like “how to improve your topspin” or “5 ways to boost your mental game.” Tweener is about pulling back the curtain on the wonderfully chaotic, often ridiculous, and occasionally glorious world of club tennis.

We’re talking champagne-fueled gossip. Line call controversies that rival international diplomacy. Court assignments that feel suspiciously political. And yes, the brave tennis pros who manage it all with a smile, a clipboard, and one foot out the exit door.

So… What Exactly Is Tweener?

Think of it as your unofficial guide to surviving and thriving in country club tennis culture. It’s part roast, part reality check, part celebration of this strange, beautiful microcosm. Whether you’re a seasoned member who knows everyone’s NTRP rating by heart or just someone who comes for the free mimosas and drama, Tweener gives you a front-row seat to it all.

What to expect:

• True Tales from the Court: After years of working in the club scene, the stories have piled up—funny, tragic, awkward, and everything in between. It’s time to share.

• Character Spotlights: From the Ball Machine Barbie to the Social Assassin, we’ll introduce you to the personalities you definitely know (and probably avoid).

• Satirical Deep Dives: Club politics, match drama, passive-aggressive bulletin board notes—we’re covering it all.

• Tennis Tips… Sort of: You might accidentally learn something. But no promises.

Welcome aboard. Let’s serve it how it really is!
