...In our swimming court?

Or was that a hit of tennis on our tennis pool?

Gotta love this weather! :clap:

How do you think tennis courts (or any "flat" surface) drains?! And that's the way the wind was blowin too.

Lol lucky tennis ain't a winter sport huh. Na I'd expect quite a few courts to be flooded after this much rain! We have paddocks full of water and all.

Thats all good except for when the courts double as a hockey turf as well. No matter how hard you hit the ball it dont like to roll through puddles all that well.

Haha yeah that sucks. I loved playing on proper water-based hockey turfs though they are mint!

My cheap ass school couldn't afford one, best we got was a sand based one. Not a nice surface to be sliding around on.

Least you still have a court mate, we've lost about 3 meters off our front lawn here in Omokoroa due to the rain! :crazy:
Lucky the house is about 15 meters back from the cliff. ;)

my primary school had a hockey turf... every time it rained there'd be thousands of dead black beetles all over the thing
