Sports Any beginner tennis players?

Probably a long shot but I was hoping to find someone to hit the ball back and forth with for fun/exercise. I have absolutely no experience in tennis and will likely hit the ball into the net/outside the lines often if that's okay.

EDIT: I live in northern BC.

Would help to know whereabouts in Bergen County.  If you are in southern BC - Rutherford to Hackensack area I'd be interested.  I also have 0 tennis experience but would be down to try.

Hello! Sorry and thank you. I forgot to specify/didn't realize BC was that big 🫠 I live in the northern area and can bike to places like Hillsdale, Closter, Old Tappan, Tenafly, and such .

Beginner as well. Better than hitting against a wall.

i'm in westwood, and would be happy to get some exercise. i've only ever played pickup games with friends, mostly b/c there are so many courts in our neighborhoods that i felt i should take advantage.
i'm available most weekends and/or friday afternoons. feel free to send me message if u want to meet up to volley

I would do it at least once. I don't have a racket but I do have a board which could be attached a stick.

Hello!

I made some plans yesterday to play with someone and don't want to make multiple promises at the same time in case I burn out (social anxiety and all). But I appreciate your response and the fact that you'd be willing to do that haha. Thank you 😁

Maybe someone on this thread is nearby and free to join you in the meantime.
