Jackson had his first UTR (Universal Tennis Rating) Tournament of the season this past Saturday in Rockwall, Texas. He did well. He won his first match then dropped his second match to a high school girl. But he played well and he enjoyed playing competitive tennis again.
It was a beautiful day for tennis. 64 degrees at first serve. We have signed him up for several UTR Tournaments since KISD has the ridiculous and vindictive policy of not allowing any student who opted for At-Home Learning at any point in the school year to play sports for the entire year. Rumor is they may be re-thinking that policy but I'm not holding out any hope.
I'm just glad Jackson plays a sport that gives us options out side of school competitions. He had a lot of fun at this first tournament of the year.
