I made a plan to be more active this summer and bought new tennis balls, a racket and clothes. I’m very serious about this.
Tomorrow, I had plans to play tennis but my friends all cancelled. 😢 Should I just go anyways, and hopefully ask to join other players? Hopefully, there’s someone there who likes tennis just as much as me, but doesn’t have a partner to play with! Lol
I know it’s a couple’s sport and people are probably going to come with their partner.
Do you think this is bad idea if I just go alone? I bought a new racket, gym clothes, and all of this is going to go to waste. Also, I look so cute in my tennis outfit too!
EDIT: It was super fun!
I played with an elderly couple, and I met a guy there as well! He was super polite. They all taught me how to play, and they all told me to come back next week! I totally am!
This post is so cute. I love how positive and happy it is
Definitely go alone! I love going to stuff alone because I can do everything at my pace, feel the vibe and try to make friends. Good luck and let us know how it goes!
Have fun! Tell us how it goes
What's the setting there like? If it is a tennis club or their grounds you could contact them beforehand and tell them you are interested in playing but don't have a partner to play with and if it would make sense to just show up. Many clubs have special days or events for people to find or rotate playing partners. If you are a beginner it would also make sense to let your prospective partner know beforehand so nobody gets frustrated or disappointed.
I did the same when I moved and needed a new partner for indoor climbing and the club I contacted had special nights for "single" people (without a climbing partner, not without a real life partner).
