(BY SAMSON DUBINA)

Hey!  I look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas for the US Nationals next week!  As you are packing your bags, don’t forget to bring the following items…
-Racket
-Shoes
-Spare Racket (identical and assembled)
-Extra Rubber
-Nittaku Premium Balls
-Video Camera
-Extra Batteries
-Tripod
-Hand Towel
-Floor Towel
-Glue
-Glue Sponge Applicator
-Scissors
-Net Checker
-Snacks
-Drinks
-Money
-USATT Rule Book
-Notebook and Pen
-Extra Clothes
-Phone
-Phone Charger
-Water Bottle
Tournaments add plenty of stress to the competitors.  Having all the necessary items will just make it more enjoyable and less stressful.  Remember while flying to keep your racket and shoes with you in your carry-on bag.  Store other items (glue, scissors, etc.) in your checked luggage!  Compete, enjoy, and don’t forget the necessities!  Well, if you do forget them, you can support one of my main sponsors PADDLE PALACE!  We will be having a booth at the US Nationals!  See you there!
