Most Improved Player Award
Posted by Michael Starke on 30 May 2007 | Tagged as: General
Every year we hand out a Male & Female Most Improved Player Award, The 2006 BTC MIP winners are Jack Vail & Sandra Seiden.
Both have shown vast improvement the past few years. Jack is a southpaw who likes to serve & volley and use his lefty feel for deft touch and angles. Sandra has a great all around game, extremly accurate and penetrating groundstrokes and competes well.
Both Jack & Sandra receive a free 1/2 hour lesson, a placque, and have their names engraved on our Most Improved Player placque located in the lobby. Congratulations!
