Winter time is the worst for an avid tennis player like me. I like the snow and all, but it's so hard to find a place to play. The only courts I can go to are the BYU courts or get a membership at the Gold's Gym in Orem (and pay $15 each time I want to reserve a court). Sorry, but that's not in my budget.
The only solution is for BYU to build more indoor courts. Right now there are four indoor courts for 30,000 students! Sure, not all of them play tennis, but let's say 10% do. That leaves four courts for 3,000 students. And don't forget Tues, Wed, and Thurs nights are reserved for intramurals and Saturday mornings for the team (among other times). Demand is high. I called yesterday to reserve a court (you can call a week in advance), and there wasn't a single opening! Not even for next Monday! Does anyone have any other solutions? Eventually I'll be living in Palo Alto, CA where I can play outdoors just about all year long.
On another note. This court is pretty sweet. That would be awesome to play there. It's real, it's in Dubai.
