I'...Hi Cynthia,<br /><br />A game of tennis sounds great!<br /><br />I've actually been playing a lot more lately. It's a great sport for me because no one can bowl me over on the court and the ground is perfectly level so I can take risks with my agility without fear.<br /><br />My serve is most definitely improving and I find that I rely on the volley a lot more than I used to. I think running backwards or changing direction fast is slightly more problematic in a game situation so instead I've become more aggressive at the net.<br /><br />I'm learning to be a lot more agile on the new leg than I was on my interim so that's helping as well. <br /><br />Talk to you soon!<br />MikeMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12201995177108279270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1935516318455128564.post-42011121882296244882010-10-26T16:05:24.327+10:002010-10-26T16:05:24.327+10:00Hey Mike - great blog!

I am also a left BKA tennis player - though I am just starting tennis again after 3 years with the prosthesis - and it's great to be back on the court. I'd love to hear more about changes you've made to your game and what's worked (and hasn't). I live in Vienna Austria - if you are even in the area looking for a game, me know.<br />Ciao - CynthiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1935516318455128564.post-90572427005671549982009-08-28T10:53:43.660+10:002009-08-28T10:53:43.660+10:00Hi!

Basically I was just born without my left arm below my elbow and I have worn a prosthesis since I was 3 months old. I started playing tennis when I was ten and I ended up playing division I college tennis. For the heck of it I googled "amputee tennis" and found your site. Its so great to see what other people have accomplished! Keep up the great work, you are a true champion!JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507842504706055923noreply@blogger.com
