The Fuzz Slapper

Granny Sherry picked up Reed from tennis camp on Friday evening. 
He said it was better than last year and the food was even better.

Reed talked his way in to playing with the "Top Gun" kids (one of the kids is in the top 10 in Mexico and one is in the top 150 in Germany) so he basically spent 7 hours each day getting the tar beat out of him.

So much so, that he said he only won one match in the camp tournament. 


But where most kids wouldn't think losing all week was "fun", Reed feels like he got so much better playing against these kids.  He said, "I got way better practice than if I had been the best person in the group." He also told me he "got aced a lot." 


He got the "fuzz slapper" award, which he had to tell me means that he hits the ball really hard. And he was excited about that.
