So - Living on Earth (of NPR fame) had a quick piece on Rebounces yesterday.  The link is here.  It was funny to see it on here as Grant spoke with them a while ago and now we're finally on :)

Here is the file if you don't want to check out the link > Living On Earth - Rebounces = Cool Fix.mp3

Also, as Grant mentioned the other day... the "Green Tennis Machines" are for sale and more info will be unveiled at the BNP Paribas Open

Cheers

Hopefully you've voted at awards.onthebaseline.com for your favorite WTA players, coaches, writers and commentators.  If you entered the contest, I hope you will win one of the five sets of 50 balls we are giving away.

Rebounces congratulates all the players who made 2009 a truly fabulous year on the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour!

In 2009, Rebounces exceeded its goal of diverting five tons of balls from landfills and we are currently setting our sights on 25+ tons in 2010! These lofty goals would not be achievable without the fantastic players and partners, such as On the Baseline, that Rebounces works with every day.

Please check out our Recycling program and our Replay program that allows you to give your dead tennis balls life again.

Have a great holiday season and go VOTE

Come out on July 2nd to watch the Aces take on the Boston Lobsters!!  At the entrance, you will have the opportunity to donate 12 balls to be recycled by Rebounces.  In return you will receive a 'Green Cup' that entitles you to discounted refreshments the entire Aces 2009 season.

We look forward to seeing you all there... gates open at 5.30pm and play begins at 7.00pm.  More information via Press Release can be found here.

It was quite a match on Sunday!  Sam pushed Nadal to the limits for two sets.  I mean this is the same Sam we watched in St Louis as a teammate of the WTT Aces get pushed to a tie-breaker versus Dusan Vemic.  Once he gets more comfortable serve and following to the net, watch out... he should win some tournaments.

I would like to say thanks to Bill for mentioning this crazy idea (Rebounces) to me while we were in grad school.  It has been a long and winding road and there are still miles to go.

We hope you will join us in greening the game of tennis.  While there have been a lot of steps taken in the past 12 months, we feel no one is focusing on tennis balls and with your help we can extend the life of balls four or five times.  Replay, Reuse, Recycle - that is the true way to green and/or change tennis.

You can reach me directly via Linkedin if you would like to discuss a potential business venture with Rebounces.

Cheers!
