P RESIDENT’ S RE P ORT<br />
It was a great honor to serve as president and lead the San Diego<br />
Division of the <strong>USPTA</strong>. I will be stepping down and moving<br />
into the position of Regional Vice President for the division. I<br />
have to thank every one of you for the opportunity and the great<br />
experience of representing the division at the national meetings.<br />
<strong>Fall</strong> is in full swing and we are back to the TPFL (Tennis Pros Free Lunch). I am very<br />
excited to announce the next educational get together at the La Jolla Beach and Tennis<br />
Club on January 21, 2012. It will be a tennis workshop “Where the Serve Meets the<br />
Surf” with a full afternoon of educational seminars. Please save the date and hope you<br />
can make it! Our Award Dinner will be also on Saturday, January 21, 2012 at the La<br />
Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. We will celebrate with a half-day educational conference<br />
starting at 11:30 am with on court presentations featuring great pros like Oscar Wegner,<br />
Conan Lorenzo, Brian Teacher, and Brad Stine. I hope you can take advantage of<br />
this educational opportunity to expand your knowledge with some insightful tips and<br />
coaching techniques. Then it is time to relax with some cocktails and good food at our<br />
Awards Dinner where our featured speaker, Tom McGraw (<strong>USPTA</strong> National Board<br />
Member), will address the membership on the state of the <strong>USPTA</strong>.<br />
Let's celebrate this fall season. My wish for all of us tennis pros is warm weather,<br />
good health, and a better economy. Let’s make the new year something special for<br />
the <strong>USPTA</strong> San Diego division, keep this momentum going in the right direction and<br />
make this division the best for all of us. I also believe the future looks very good for<br />
all of us in the tennis industry, specially with the 10 and under initiative, that is putting<br />
the industry in the pipeline of another tennis boom. Now, it is up to us to participate,<br />
contribute and make all <strong>USPTA</strong> events a priority for our business.<br />
Cheers,<br />
Nelson Alapi
