Now, them Lake Oswego Tennis Center, they got seven teams. Seven! That’s a whole bunch, if ya ask me. These ladies, they play competitive, real serious like. It ain’t just hittin’ balls over the net, no sir. They got divisions, schedules, rosters, standings. All that fancy stuff. Makes my head spin just thinkin’ about it.
They play matches on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Some play in the mornin’, from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm. The A to F teams, they play on Wednesdays. The G to K teams, they play on Tuesdays. Gotta keep it straight, ya know?

This whole City League thing, it’s run by a board. Bunch of players from different places, they make the rules. They got bylaws, handbooks, documents, forms. All kinds of papers. And they got board meetin’ minutes too. Sounds important.
They got this calendar thing too. Tells ya when they playin’. And they got drivin’ directions, so ya don’t get lost tryin’ to find the matches. That’s good, ’cause some folks can’t find their way outta paper bag.
