If you don't mind playing in small groups, or with old people (okay I don't know how old you are so I won't try to be offensive

), let's call them veterans, there are actually quite a few times and places to play (I can think of at least 10 sessions.)

Check out: http://www.insports.com.au/bv/upload/venuesmelb.asp

Missing off the top of my head there's Telstars, who play at Whitefriar's college Donvale, their social is on Friday nights (what the?) quite a wide variety of players, and friendly, if it wasn't on a Friday night I'd play there. Probably a couple more if I think about it.

PS I saw you inquiring about Proaces and apacs stuff in Malaysia, you know you can buy that stuff here.

Thanks for the info.
I know I could buy it here, I rather buy in M'sia is more cheaper though.
R you playing at Donvale? R you from M'sia?
Anyway, better for me to compare the prices b4 i buy in M'sia oso. So, do you know who selling those 2 brands racket or any stores?

Thanks!

yeah that place is real good!!! especially the friday ones.... though for a girl, it sucks cause all the girls there aren't very good (except one who's like a state player or something)...and girls unfortunately, usually have to play other girls cause the people dun encourage girls playing guys.... that sucks.

There is a social club that play in Box Hill 7.30-11.30pm on Saturday nights. It is at the old high school I think in Haig St. along Canterbury rd box hill.

Hi David,

Do the above prices include both the string and labour, or just the strings? If we
wanted your stringing service, how could we give you the rackets??
