    Hi Akife, I don't think I could commit to the tournament by the 5th march as I am having problems with my elbow and I want to give it a couple of weeks rest to see if it improves.

    I noticed you live in East London. I work in Aldgate, so if you fancy a friendly game after work or at lunchtime in a few weeks let me know as there is a sports centre just behind Whitechapel station I can easily get to.

    Same goes for anyone else who can get to Aldgate/Whitechapel

    the problem is I don't want to committ to playing only to pull out if my elbow hasn't got any better.

    have either of you played in this before? what is the standard like?

    Well my I can only say it a challenge me and I have been invited to it but I think there will be different levels of play in seniors, I don't main if we pull out because of your elbow as I want play just to have experience in tournament level and in enjoy it as much
    as I can.

    Hi Akife, I don't really want to wear a brace as that i just putting off the problem for another day. At some point I will need to rest my elbow and I would prefer it to be now when the problem is a minor one. I'm going to play a little tomorrow and then again on Friday and hopefully it will be better.

    Maybe we can organise a friendly (ie not intense!) game of doubles soon?

    Well I would have been interested but as far as I know I am going to be umpiring on that day.......unfortunately I also cant commit by the 5th march as I wont find out if the umpiring is still going ahead until the end of march.

    Would like to get back into tournaments again.....any other tournaments lined up in the future??
