I am new to the game of tennis.  Does anyone have any tips that they could give me.  I've been out on the court quite a few times.  I have a graphite Wilson racket.

Welcome to the sport! If you are in the Atlanta area there are plenty of opportunities to join beginner level teams in a league known as ALTA.  Often these teams pool resources to receive weekly coaching which is helpful for those learning the game.

If you are in another area of the country check with area public and private tennis facilities.  The United States Tennis Association has recently launched an initiative they call "Tennis Welcome Centers."  The purpose of this program is for area tennis facilities to develop innovative and fun programs to expose the game to new players. 

Again, welcome!!!
