You are not alone. So what type of string should you be looking to try? First, you need to assess what your needs are. Example #1: You are an up and coming junior tournament player looking for a string that will give your game an edge or one that will not break in the middle of that critical point. You have read about the number of players who are using polyester or poly-hybrids, but are they right for Central PA you? Here are some facts you need to know: 1. Polyester is difficult to break, plays great, but for a short period of time. Polyester strings only Richard last about 20 hours of play before they loose their resiliency and tension and go dead. Poly-blends 5 Rauenzahn can last up to 30 hours. 2. Polyester is much harder on the arm than synthetics or natural gut. They are NOT recommended if you have arm, wrist or shoulder problems. 3. Most players on the circuit use a blend of polyester and gut or polyester and a very soft, coreless multifilament nylon. Delaware 4. The pros cut polyester or polyester blends out of their racquets, on average, after one match and one practice (The commentators on television fail to mention this when they are singing the Monique virtues of this string type). Holloway Example #2: You are a club player who suffers from the discomfort of tendinitis, bursitis or arthritis and are searching for that magical string which will reduce or maybe even eliminate your pain. What works best? Here are the facts you need to know: 1. The most resilient string with the greatest shock absorption qualities is natural gut. The second is a hybrid blend of natural gut and a soft, coreless multifilament synthetic. Third is a soft, coreless multifilament synthetic. Eastern PA 2. Natural gut can last up to 60 hours in your racquet (if you are not abusive to your strings), gut hybrids (no poly) 45 hours and soft synthetics 30 hours. Loretta DeWalt 3. Tension is a big factor in reducing pain. Lower is better, but there are limits. 4. Frame type, grip size and stroke production can also be major factors when it comes to discomfort. Next, you have to find a competent stringer who is familiar with all the various strings on the market today and can recommend New Jersey good choices. Seek out a qualified, professional stringer. Just like a good teaching professional, a qualified stringer’s reputation Ann LoPrinzi should precede them. Ask around. Some guidelines should be, but are not limited to, United States Racquet Stringer’s Association (USRSA) certification, experience in both club and professional events, high level playing experience (to speak from experience), a laundry list of clients and a solid reputation of standing behind their work. Drew Sunderlin (Ambler, Pa.), a USPTA Master Professional and Master Racquet Philadelphia Technician with the USRSA, is the owner of Ft. Washington Swim & Tennis Club, Strings ‘n Things Pro Shop and Strings ‘n Things Competition Stringing Service. Sunderlin is considered by many to be extremely knowledgeable when it comes to helping his clients choose the right frame, Jeff Garrett string and tension for their individual needs and style of play. He strings over 3,000 frames a year for both professionals and amateurs. If you would like to contact Sunderlin with any questions you might have regarding racquets, stringing or customizing, you can reach him at: [email protected] NETPLAY • FALL 2009 • 610.935.5000 • [email protected] ADVERTISEMENT What a Season! 2009 Philadelphia Freedoms This year marked the greatest lineup of tennis stars ever seen in Philadelphia - Andre Agassi, Serena Williams, Venus Williams, John McEnroe, Martina Navratilova, Kim Clijsters, Anna Kournikova, Lisa Raymond, and, of course, Billie Jean King!

This annual compilation and data analysis allows us to benchmark our progress, both year over year and in comparison to peer cities. In this year’s report, several significant trends came to light helping us identify unmet needs and better understand opportunities for developing programs and initiatives in direct response to those challenges. Although improvements to the built environment are evident in nearly every corridor of the Golden Triangle, significant resources are also being channeled into office property interiors to meet the demands of 21st century companies and attract a talented workforce to Pittsburgh’s urban core. More than $300M has been invested in Downtown’s commercial office stock over the 4 ACCOLADES AND BY THE NUMBERS last five years – a successful strategy drawing new tenants to Downtown and ensuring that our iconic buildings will continue to accommodate expanding businesses and emerging start-ups. OFFICE, EMPLOYMENT AND EDUCATION Downtown experienced a 31% growth in residential population over the last ten years, a trend that will continue with the opening 6 of hundreds of new units over the next couple of years. Businesses, from small boutiques to Fortune 500 companies, continued to invest in the Golden Triangle in 2018 while Downtown welcomed a record number of visitors and new residents. HOUSING AND POPULATION 12 Development in Downtown is evolving and all of these investments combine to drive the economic vitality of the city, making Downtown’s thriving renaissance even more robust.
