One of the biggest parts about playing for you college, high school or any other tennis team leagues is the traveling. This past weekend me and my team went to Salisbury Maryland to play our first two matches.
For the most part I actually enjoy going to other schools to play matches, because I personally like the change of scenery, as well as the trip down to where ever we are going.
Our trip to Salisbury was about 3 hours long in a large transit van one everyone loaded up their bags and clothes we all picked a seat and hit the road. Mostly the trip is great everyone his trying to have a good time talking about how they expect to do both in classes and on court.
Sometimes we take music request, and get a group rap in that also can be pretty fun when the non- musically inclined players get into it.
In terms of space per person sometimes it can get a little cramped but it all depends on the amount of people as well as the type of vehicle that is being brought.
Finally after the short weekend of playing we come back to Stevenson from Salisbury, but the atmosphere was a little different obviously you might want to get use to sleeping in a car because that will come in handy. But long away road trips can make for some pretty memorable times with, and I can safely say it would take a lot for me to miss out on that.

Road trips are a lot of fun when you stay the night more than just day trips
ReplyDeleteDo you ever sing "100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" during road trips? Google it, if you are not sure what it is. Every road trip I took as a teenager included this song. Once you get it in your head, it will never leave so forgive me........ :)
