Fall 2022 The mission of the USPTA Board of Directors is to grow tennis and to facilitate the success of all USPTA Pros. This newsletter is one tool we employ to fulfill our mission. Therefore, our newsletter provides information, tips, and resources to help you succeed and grow the game of tennis.
Letter from the President — Andy Zodin Dear Intermountain ProsHappy holidays!! I hope all of you are able to reflect on a strong, productive 2022. I can honestly say that 2022 has been a great year. Things are incredibly busy in Colorado at my place, and more importantly, I've had the opportunity to get out and see several of you at YOUR facilities. So many pros and coaches are doing such great work. While tennis remains strong, pickleball and other racquet & paddle sports are also in expansive growth modes. All of this is positive news for our industry as a whole. We are all obviously having to do some re-inventing of sorts as a result of the aforementioned derivative sports, and as we do so we grow our market share, which ultimately is good for business. We'll be addressing this topic, as well as many others, during our 2023 Annual Intermountain Divisional Conference (which will again be virtual) on February 21st, 22nd, and 23rd. Great presenters are again lined up, and more details on all of that will be out in early January.
In the meantime, enjoy the turkey, the cool weather, the indoor tennis, the presents, and the holiday parties. All the best to all of you!! Andy Zodin Director of Tennis, Columbine Country Club President, USPTA Intermountain Division Host, KickServeRadio.com 303.520.7676 Fall 2022
