About Tennis Department
Tennis Background
In 2006, I decided to try out for the tennis team as a junior in high school.
I had basically zero experience playing tennis. I borrowed my friend’s sister’s tennis racket to try out (and ended up using it the whole season).
Fortunately, my small-town high school didn’t have a lot of tennis players, so I made the JV team. I’m not sure if anyone was actually cut, frankly.
Playing tennis on my high school team was an incredible experience, and I’ve had a love for playing tennis ever since.
I had a very average season, and even though I didn’t go on to play competitively after high school, I’m so glad I learned the fundamentals of tennis.
A Website is Born
Fast forward to the present, and I’m a web designer who’s obsessed with creating interesting website projects. I decided to build a website about tennis, and so tennisdepartment.com was born.
I had a lot of fun putting together a page on tennis court dimensions (I built a tennis court diagram layout with CSS), and I’m excited to create a lot more content like this.
Tennis Department is now a small team of writers and web designers who love tennis. We are working to create and maintain what we think is the best tennis website on the internet.
