Sign up deadline for Cobb Tennis League is 10/17

Submitted by Cobb County Com... on Thursday, October 6th, 1:37 pm

The Cobb Tennis League is a league where you compete against other players of similar ability. The league is for adult tennis players, with ability levels ranging from NTRP 2.0-5.0.

The 2.0 level is a great opportunity for players who consider themselves 'true beginners' and are experiencing league tennis for the first time. Players register individually and are matched against other players at their ability level. This is a flex league where you play when it is convenient for you and you can play anywhere in Cobb County where there are tennis courts (parks, clubs, or subdivisions).

There are two seasons each year, a spring season and fall season. The fall season begins October 24th. The Cobb Tennis League is a great way to enjoy fun competition and to meet new people!!! Registration for the fall league is currently in progress. The entry deadline is October 17th.

LOCAL PROFILE: NFL Linebacker Rennie Curran

Submitted by Eden Godbee, Where U Live Producer

Thursday, September 29th, 2011, 6:57pm

LILBURN -- Former Brookwood High School football standout, Rennie Curran is patiently waiting for a new jersey. Over the past two years, Curran went from the University of Georgia to LP Field in Nashville and now he's back at home.

Curran was released shortly after this year's NFL pre-season, despite leading the team in tackles during the pre-season.

Since being cut, Curran has been training at Catalyst and other gyms to ensure that when he does get a call, he wont miss a step. Curran is pretty confident he'll be wearing someone's jersey soon.
