As well as being an independant tennis coach at public-courts of Clapham Common managed by Lambeth Council.<br /></p><p>Commercial Exploitation of Clpaham Common tennis court and reknown poor Lambeth Council managment have contributed to lawless wild-west at the flagship tennis courts of Lambeth Borough Council. Lawless from tennis-coaches presence in uncontrolled numbers and squeezing out availability of tennis courts for public-use.Krishna has a bee-in-his-bonnet about this personally, because he was threatened with joining an inception tennis-license scheme that was designed for the opposite of Wild West Clapham Common Tennis-Courts. Lawless wild-west is the reality on the ground now and in the past with protagonist Julian Cousins presiding and Jane Palmer of Lambeth Council - court-booking management facilitator, initially as GLL/Better then Council, being the enduring personnel. </p><p>This over-commercialisation via unauthorised tennis-coaching results in operating status often breaching Council-set rules for preventing excessive tennis-coaching on municipal tennis-court. The Council are allowing excess coaches or having courts used most of the time especially off-peak time. Yet the unforseen / "unwitting" consequence of staff no loner present at said-prmises since blah-blah of Covid19 era 2020 means, the off-peak coaches are not paying to use the courts! So no net benefit for Lambeth taxpayers - haha! Hence Krishna averred about poor managment of flagship tennis-court bordering Wandsworth and Lambeth Borough districts, which is also incidentally a Lawn Tennis Association affililiated venue; so their jurisdiction of managament also quesytionable.The reputationally poor managment once agin can be considered hy comparing how neighbouring Wandswort'hs Battersea Park tennis-courts are managed, as my team-mate coach / colleague James hinted.<br /></p><p>The status-quo has been been fostered through years of shenanigans of mentioned personnel in conjunction with here-now-gone-tomorrow Lambeth Council parks & leisure management. That offered in Krishna'shumble opinion as relatively new operator tennis-coach but resident 2-minutes from said tennis-court for most of the time since Queen's Silver Jubille in 1977! Mentioned that as next month a new King Charles will be coronated. Long live the NEW King!</p><p>On a final note Krishna has often written and based reasoning arguments to Council managment, but they seem to be falling on deaf-ears; or at least not the biggest priority in post-Covid and climate-emergency times. As a CCMAC representative, i did have the ear of the Director of Parks and Leisure at Lambeth Council for sip in the bar, and he suggested tennis-license would be a priority again. Jokingly or not, i am amazed at what passes for order in a rules based method of civil-service viz. alll the political scamps in Parliament, as a model. Krishna now ith his activist hat on too!</p><p> Thank you for reading this publicizing piece of subvert operation at Clapham Common making life miserable for this independant operator. <br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668611637680833416.post-89600574603253010282022-09-10T00:38:00.001+01:002022-09-21T10:52:26.297+01:00Beguilled Wonderment Being Robbed In / On Court<p>09-Sept.-022 <br /></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Long-live King Charles III of U.K </b></span><br /></p><p>Day one after <b>"Queenie bee" H.M. Elizabeth Regina / Queen</b> or whatever her title; died there was a relief and mourning in which ever interpretation and touched-sentimentality. Or was there an energy-price hike via spectre of austere inflation that ALL will face - maybe towards pricing-us-out of energy consumption via air / car travel, for climate-change sake! -. </p><p>But The Queen, a face known to the world, arguably less benefitting humanity than Michael Jackson, yet <b>globally powerfully influential as symbol of the British Empire</b>,<b> as she virually rubber-stamps Prime Ministers and other dignataries etc of the United Kingdom, and other #politiciansRcriminals</b> (especially, when they are unserving of the public-interest; instead subserviance to a RICH-OLIGARCH sponsored slick-connected-greasy lobbyst). <b>You know which side you are on through hypocrisy!</b> I am a british subject just commemorated 45 years in UK; from birth to childhood raised in Sri Lanka to the age eight.<br /></p><p></p><p>That was commemorating an institution with vestiage in "dificult" history, as she H.M described about singular massaacre in colonial Indian past! To be continued now of Lambeth Council management process for £1000 fee license, and explots of "dodgy Cousins"..</p><p>Latest is that rumouring about MY NOT having a license: another latest stooge of Julian Cousin's informed me. Here is "french" Francois's voice-recording attacking me while defending himself as employee of Julian to extend himself <b>as YET another tennis-coach at over-crowded monopoly Clapham Common Westside SW4 9AN</b>. <br /></p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Local Tennis News</span> </b>(by Krishna Siva, principal at LineBall Tennis May 28th, 2022)</p><p>No! this is NOT a report of Queen's Platinum Jubillee and how her citizens have been robbed under their noses for 70 years or historically longer via British Royalty. Instead a report about administrative fob-off and business rip-offs.</p><p> Principal Krishna of LineBall Tennis met with Lambeth Council Sports + Leisure over concerns about the transition period before introduction a <b>new revamped licensing scheme for its local and Lambeth-wide tennis coaches. </b>The new license was proposed 1st June 2021, and is exected to be in force in September 2022, and cost £1,000 at Clapham venue.<br /></p><p>Krishna, a stakeholder at Calpham Common tennis-courts through his post-City livilihood as tennis-coach, had qualms about the allocation of prime-time court-bookings between the official tennis coaches allowed block-booking at Clapham Common. The local authourity's head of parks and leisure had generated a report in response about recent peak and off-peak court-allocations. This is shown below:<br /></p><p> ***5 pie-carts of allocation</p><p>So Julian Cousin's is the biggest honco stakeholder in terms of tennis-court hours allocated, with PlayBall and LineBall Tennis trailing, Note that PlayBall are NOT even about tennis-coaches but large international "commercial" toddler-group activities - also an issue at odds raised with the Council officials - more later.</p><p> <br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668611637680833416.post-25795987376655423182022-01-09T16:57:00.003+00:002022-01-12T15:12:28.008+00:00Novak Djokovic Knows Vaccine Passport Is More Than Tennis<p><span style="font-size: x-large;"> Updated 12-Jan-2022: Stop Press! Unstated in mainstream news </span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">(msm) </span>media and even underplayed by Novack Djokovic press releases is that fact that<b> THIS YEAR 2022 is potentially the best chance of capturing the elusive calendar grand slam</b> of the four "majors" tennis tournaments: Australian, French, Wimbledon and US Open. Having missed the feat in 2021 by one final match in New York at the US Open. This is year is make or break on that dream ,since he has brokend most tennis-playing records already. By losing that championship grandslam match to Daniil Medvedev in August 2021, he preserved Australia's living-legend legacy of the only man in open-era professional tennis to win all four majors in one year. That legend is Rod Laver winning the grandslam in 1969. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;"> So we at Lineball Tennis - Clapham Common, reading between the lines says that politics is now interferring with sports and <b>Novak's ambitions and tennis legacy to become a GOAT </b>- Great Of All Time. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Some will say Novack has been a political influencer being <b>one of only 3 male tennis players in the top100 NOT to be vaccinated; </b>according to statement by the mens-tennis governing body Association of Tennis Players - ATP.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">At time of writing the Australian Government's immigration minister <b>Alex Hawke is said to be considering whether to rescind Monday's judiciary re-reinvoked valid visa</b>. We don't believe this high-profile issue of vaccine-passport and sporting-legacy can be kicked into the long-grass of public's fading memory.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Should or will Novack play in the Australian Open </b>starting 17th January considering all the circumstances? Not least because if he plays he keeps the grandslam dream alive while potentially scuppering Australia's 1969 legacy to tennis.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Watch this space.<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">---------<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">World tennis is not SO stunned! <b>as much as the purveyors of the covid19 narrative,</b> about Novak Djokovic's detention at an immigration centre in Australia in January New Year 2022.</span></p><p></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEizkg_qxfQ36SOzezntEwj0z__Rv5CUMV6h23hOs9DkxIOdjbRy9ZqsoacOdAA1N1xD2F1vIZXNL7qyBFJkLPJ24ZV33XP0zL5HR7LaJNmFnT_fHaBP3_73lEOU5wMl0-wcIzWCEwTYouuUSgwTsd4S3KIz5R4imnDVuxDWJvTZiMkkg9OO8K6DBEUUVw=s680" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="680" data-original-width="523" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEizkg_qxfQ36SOzezntEwj0z__Rv5CUMV6h23hOs9DkxIOdjbRy9ZqsoacOdAA1N1xD2F1vIZXNL7qyBFJkLPJ24ZV33XP0zL5HR7LaJNmFnT_fHaBP3_73lEOU5wMl0-wcIzWCEwTYouuUSgwTsd4S3KIz5R4imnDVuxDWJvTZiMkkg9OO8K6DBEUUVw=s320" width="246" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Novak by Twitter credit @KatMadr1d<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-size: x-large;"></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">The fact that a close Greatest Of All Time (GOAT) tennis player, and current men's world number 1, was <b>refused entry to Australia for being unvaccinated against covid19</b>, and then being told his medical-exemption is not valid, has huge ramifications going forward.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">The first and foremost ramification we at LineBall Tennis assert is <b>the biosecurity-passport creep. </b>Novak, a Serbian national, being held-up in an immigration detention centre - NOT BECAUSE OF NATIONALITY, while awaiting some nature of appeal for entry-visa into Australia. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Ths is <b>extreme high-profile publicity on the question of vaccine-mandate. </b>The appeal decision is to come tomorrow, </span><span style="font-size: x-large;">10th January Monday. LineBall Tennis as sideline activists who are also indignant about Julian Assange imprisonment, as a beacon of journalism fit for 21st century.<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">A debate and protest about <b>public compulsion to take vaccine, </b>which has been raging like a wildfire, at least visibly on Twitter social-media; if not on main-stream-media (msm) news channels. Which are dissembling in concert singularly coercing the public to be vaccinated; and now even to get "boosted" against other variants of SARS-COV-2.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">In comes Novak to join the debate. Unreservedly not via a forum or mass debating society, but by <b>practical action of getting on an aeroplane bound for Australia </b>to defend his Australian Open tennis-champion title, and point to maintain world number one status (without vaccination presumably or proving he was covid-negative). His use of medical exemption somewhat implies Novak is unvaccinated perhaps - but that's wholly his business. Now do you see our concern about rollout of biosecurity statecraft.<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">His body his choice about being vaccinated is the principle in law and medicine that has been tested many times in history, without sucess from authorities, and maintaining </span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">individual bodily </span>freedom. The principle never became<b> "my body, their choice"! </b>But this pandemic is insidiously dangerous - not the disease as much the cure process prescribed.

of the most important pieces of public health jurisprudence</a>”</p><p> </p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Back to Novak's case away from the principle-cases in law. <b>Not one to be perturbed by immense challenges </b>- or you don't nearly win the calendar-year grand-slam. As Novak nearly did in 2021 - hence close-GOAT! (excepting for a pesky Russian who defeated in the final match of the last grandslam of year at the US Open). Only one other tennis player in the professional era has achieved the calendar-year grand slam feat in 1969, the great living-legend that is Rod Laver. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">The <b>Novak-challenge </b>here was to see if there are loopholes for a world number one tennis player, as there are for billionnaire tax-evaders. Because lets face it the whol pandemic, restrictions and rules have had more holes than a Swiss cheese. And as we know from this article <a href="https://www.tennis.com/news/articles/the-straw-that-stirs-the-drink-how-novak-djokovic-found-his-identity">here</a>, Novak is not shy of courting controversy or playing devil's advocate.<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Novak's medical exemption was that he had had covid19 in the last 6 months, and was therefore sufficiently naturally immunised and healthy to play in a major international elite tennis tournament. But as we know first-hand, the would-be <b>authorities of covid19 s</b></span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">cience </span>and rule-makers in politics</b> couldn't make rules straight forward for an ambiguous pandemic - which some hailed as "scamdemic".</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">So tomorrow, even if Australia border-control gives Novak permission to enter the country, i.e. accepting his medical exemption, and allows him to compete in the Australian Tennis championships: <b>LineBall Tennis believes he should politelly decline or give an Agincourt salute </b></span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">two-fingers!, </span></b>as there is more than tennis-championships at stake. And there will be other grand-slam tournaments to win. Unconfirmed reports on Twitter already suggests Roland Garros, the French grand-slam will accept competitors unvaccinated. <br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">As a current empyrean ambassador for our sport, LineBall Tennis unequivicolly support Novak. Using Twitter hashtag #WeStandWithNovak or <b>#WeStandWithDjokovic</b>, we are also distrustful of institutions and authority, which has no wholesome philosophical view, but rather<b> a single oft-repeated message about vaccination mandate.</b> Which we know is tenet of propaganda.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">With that message of freedom not fear, we at LineBall Tennis - Clapham Common, including Krishna, James and Mila would like to wish our tennis patrons - you know who you are! - <b>a very happy new year for 2022</b>, and leave you this quote from John Stuart Mill 1806-1973:</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEicOsbY2UO2FyOpmO9_owM7kEj720RRHS7w0lF_ln5WulRWlTGXXzyWCbseASLeOSFuKFQMKc3HYmQddUQ7zIb9agg1b2iehy2TJc2jnTc1B9kVbxfdxfksIuFsphz9MSi7l1k4xpG2wN6qE0q9-I9FHj4uxyQyLucko5m4fFmIBlRKMb489EDFf4-3Ug=s1200" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="630" data-original-width="1200" height="336" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEicOsbY2UO2FyOpmO9_owM7kEj720RRHS7w0lF_ln5WulRWlTGXXzyWCbseASLeOSFuKFQMKc3HYmQddUQ7zIb9agg1b2iehy2TJc2jnTc1B9kVbxfdxfksIuFsphz9MSi7l1k4xpG2wN6qE0q9-I9FHj4uxyQyLucko5m4fFmIBlRKMb489EDFf4-3Ug=w640-h336" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b> </b></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668611637680833416.post-16111951600175467382020-10-25T10:13:00.006+00:002021-03-02T14:37:17.563+00:00Bowling Green Pavilion - UPDATE on Planning Re-Designation by Wandsworth Council<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">A brief update as of 2-March-2021, while still in lockdown three.

Dear Sir/Madam...<br />
<br />
First you should say briefly where you live, if you are local, and that you
don't approve of the project.<br />
<br />
You should give some of the arguments against it. <b><span face=""Helvetica",sans-serif" style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi;">Please feel free to use the ones we've listed
below. (See Cllr. Belton planning-clarified argument above)</span></b><br />
<br />
Finish by urging the Inspectorate to refuse the application.<br />
<br />
Yours faithfully,<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

I and a few other reidents expressed concern in April 2019 when I posted original note <a data-cke-saved-href="https://nappyvalleynet.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=197&t=102634" href="https://nappyvalleynet.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=197&t=102634">Clapham Common Westside Bowling Green Closure</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br />My objection to the whole idea of crazy-golf articulated as “Putting In The Park” is simple. I for one really <b>do not want a part the common land belonging to generations of past and present taxpayers hived-off / leased to private enterprise to run and manage for profit, or even for non-profit impetus. </b>It simple because its says so on the tin; its in the name of our park “Clapham Common”. “Common” land for us, the locals and residents.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br />From that over-arching principle – we do still have them in this fair but firm land – many arguments for and against re-designation from bowling-green facility to crazy-golf can and has been made surely. From a political perspective, <b>Lambeth Council have conceded they do not have the financial budget to manage and operate lawn-bowling outdoors without loss of income </b>(instead its offering one indoor carpet bowling in Brixton). Lambeth officialdom of Councillors and managers have also got rid off lawn bowling greens in nearby Brockwell Park. Yet Tory / Conservative managed council Wandsworth, through outsourced “Enable” maintain lawn-bowling facilities at two of its centres on Wandsworth Common and St Georges Park, I believe.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br />So the falacious argument that bowling is in poor demand by gentle Wandsworth residents is NOT the over-riding reason, but that Lambeth maintained the bowling green in poor state i.e. did not resurface the lawn but paid one groundsman “Steve” c.£30k annually for its up-keep, toiling against the odds.

<br />
Everyone will have stories of the time that passed between those dates as "interesting", to say the least! Even in the "new normal" there is an air of hope expectancy filled with anxiety. And rightly so! Full tennis lockdown ended officialy in London and nationwide, as announced in the daily briefings from Downing Street, on Monday of the week, that<b> tennis would again be permitted with "social-distancing" covid19 restrictions </b>on Wednesday 13th May 2020.<br />
<br />
Whether Lambeth Council and outsource GLL (Greenwich Leisure Limited) organisations, responsible for the Clapham Common tennis facility (near the now defunct bowling-greens), are superstitious, bureacratic or simply late, <b>LineBall principal Krishna kicked-off tennis one day later </b>than at his private nearby tennis club Grafton LTC. Where he played his old neigbourhood friend on synthetic clay surface, on lucky for some day 13th of May.<br />
<br />
Talking of "old neighbour" we have the familiar former speaker of the House of Parliament John Bercow visiting Clapham Common tennis facility. He plays tennis with his son in the early morning, "2/3 times a week" as he suggested. <b>How pleasant and lively the fellow in person, </b>as he was as controversial personnae and charisma in his function as leader of Parliament's proceedings by Members of Parliament - MPs. Mr Bercow has been spotted as local "celebrity" by others too. Next time LineBall Tennis might offer coaching services to JB!<br />
<br />
Mentioning politics, your local tennis coach and long-time resident Krishna is involved in struggle to book rare tennis-court slots at the venue. The mentioned GLL online-booking he is subjected to is unwieldy to the flexible needs of the excessive number of tennis coaches at Clapham Common Westside. Under tennis-coach licensing guidelines brought in by Lambeth Council, Krishna was registered as "the last tennis coach" by the then Council officer Trevor East. Yet there are newer coaches since him operating on premises all the time! This is report-worthy, <b>as Krishna cannot book the court, hours or times for his perennial customers needs currently. </b>Explained by the Council's management on enquiry: since GLL phone-booking staff furloughed, only online booking system available (more on this dysfunctional system). Maybe you had similar online tennis-court booking difficulties? (Thus far unexplained, is how Julian Cousin's is continuing to block-book his courts 4 and 5, for his business practice. We will ask ask Council for what obligation they have to him).<br />
<br />
<b>On other tennis-client news during pandemic times </b>we have Cyprien emerging as self-proclaimed "God" by outpacing his tennis-grouping adversaries in matchplay. In one-to-one matchplay of points while rotating with adversaries he displayed winning confidence. The other compatriots Oscar, Augustine and Cameron challenging Cyprien seem over-awed by his vivid exhuberance! Cyprien, however has been playing weekly with his friends then brothers for over five years, and sometimes daily for tennis-camps with LineBall Tennis.<br />
<br />
Also, noteworthy is the emergence of another two junior tennis stars who <b>initially started playing in a private group with LineBall Tennis when only 4/5 years olds</b>, Maxime and Vasu. They are now 7/8 YOs. They played a doubles match on opposing sides in the mini-court (the 4 service boxes) on Monday 15th June. Maxime playing with new "wild-talent lefty" Raphael. And Vasu playing with also new LBT player, the all-round talent Gabriel. The encounter was significant as they all engaged totally in the competition. Demonstrated by nerves showing on tentativeness of shots from experienced Maxime and Vasu. The cool-head player was Gabriel. This competition then extended to full-court as the juniors wished. Of little significance at this stage, was the result, which was won by Vasu and Gabriel.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Alexander "Sascha" Zverev has broken into the elite crop of tennis players, from the emerging Next Generation of stars. Like the rest of the tennis world, <b>LineBall Tennis have been waiting anticipating the "nextgen" star</b> to make his break-through, in the men's game. We categorically believe the wait is over.</span><br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">"Sascha" is often shortend for Alexander in Russian, is still only age 21 and has made his emphatic emergence: by convincingly winning the end-of-year shoot-out of the year's top eight players at <b>Nitto ATP Finals</b>, in the O2 Arena in London. <b>The emergence is clear from a number of standpoints</b>, other than simply that he defeated the world number 3 and number 1 back-to-back in the semi-final and then the final, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic respectively, in London.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Sascha on Sunday topped-off a progressive year winning the biggest career title to date, and the yougest to win the year-end finale. After that win, there is also the matter that he has finished the year ranking number four in the world for the second consecutive year. Another factor is Sascha's his top-echelon status was rubber-stamped by his idea to hire Ivan Lendl as his coach in August of this year. Another great hall mark of his bust-though emergence is<b> the batch of nextgen players he left in his wake:</b> Thiem, Tsitsipas, Fognini, Khachanov, Medvedev, Dimitrov, Dolgopolov, etc.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">LineBall Tennis's principal tennis coach Krishna draws a comparison with a <b>precocious 17-year old who also announced his arrival on the big-stage of tennis</b>, by winning the most prestigious of tennis grand slam titles, Wimbledon. Of course Boris Becker, who is German, same as Sascha's birthplace and Hamburg-upbringing, though of Russian descendency; and a 6-time tennis grand slam champion made that first giant-leap. Some tennis pundits and experts have often debated about the attainment of maturity of players from various parts of the globe. Germans arguably mature faster given the other factors to producing a top national player. Krishna, like his personal idol Boris Becker (see picture below), is excited about Sascha as the future cynosure of tennis.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Andrew Castle, former British number one tennis player, and these days a TV and LBC-radio broascaster including tennis commentry at Wimbledon and ATP Finals, also had some comparative insight. Andrew remarked to Krishna, while passing by the Clapham Common public tennis facility where LineBall Tennis operates,<b> that similar to Boris, Sascha is "more arrogant"</b>. We all know Boris was "arrogant" or at least in his outward strut and ostentation; interpreted for tennis as confidant, self-assured and with strong mental fortitude. Andrew, having much speculated about "NextGen" players coming of age and a natural and much-anticipated changing of the guard, also remarked "we need the change" in men's top tennis.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Another remarkable aspect of the ATP Finals final versus Roger Federer was an incident where a point-in-play was interrupted at the request of Zverev, towards the crucial end of the second set, Zverev having one the first (oddly only one one match went to three sets the entire week-long finals). The incident resulted in booing and jeers by sections of the crowd at the O2 final. At courtside during winner's prize-giving conversation with commentator Annabel Croft, a former British women's number one player, crowd started prolonged booing. <b>Zvevrev showed his humility by recognising and apologising for halting the play.</b> He explained to the crowd that a ball-boy at the back had dropped the ball, and it had rolled on to the court with the ball-boy rushing onto court to retrieve it; which presumably distracted Zverev attention away from the ball, and subsequently he halted the point. Which is irrefutably in the ATP rules, as Annabel clearly politely asserted to the non-tennis fans in the crowd. Indeed TV-video evidence does show that to be the case. Even during the enquiry to the circuit-umpire Carlos Ramos for the reason to halt-play, Federer asked the offending ball-boy. The ball-boy is seen nodding. Zverev as the winner was also seen apologising at the net to the vanquished Federer as they shook hands at the end of their match.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Holidays in Maldives was commented as the place of destination in the off-season that Sascha Zverev and friends embark to. He had done so in 2017 as well. LineBall Tennis wish him an enjoyable rest and recuperation, and <b>thank the tennis Gods that the long-wait for a new star is finally over</b>. Yet the wait for United Kingdom to leave the globalist-agenda of the European Union, known as'Brexit', is still prolonging its delivery since June 2016 vote by the British people to leave union of European countries. One doese not expect democracy to be more tenuous than finding a tennis star, as LineBall's activists Twitter comments attest (Picture below).</span><br />

Giving credence to our last featured blow - see picture below of LineBallTennis blog April last year: <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cUGTU3S_fWY/WtBcicjM0QI/AAAAAAAAEEU/ofuUDvgDT6UnAKcUKQsccBTs4CctpcfHQCLcBGAs/s1600/L%2BBT%2BBlog%2BTitle_1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="615" height="224" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cUGTU3S_fWY/WtBcicjM0QI/AAAAAAAAEEU/ofuUDvgDT6UnAKcUKQsccBTs4CctpcfHQCLcBGAs/s320/L%2BBT%2BBlog%2BTitle_1.png" width="320" /></a></div>
And up-to-date today, "The King" Federer has now beeen de-throned again. After losing in the Indian Wells Final to Martin Del Potro, the Argentinian "Gentle Giant", in one of the recent "Sunshine Double" in the U.S.A. In the other one in Miami, <b>he lost first-round to an unknown player</b>. Or just another "giveme" #couldnotbebothered matches from Federer. So ending his short reign at the top.<br />
<br />
While that topsy-turvey world of professional world tennis continues in remarkable and commercial ways that it generates and spawns interests, the truth of local matters for non-professional tennis players is the <b>nutty nutty world of politics</b>. Yes we must also have adult talking pieces, or do we still 'chat' about tribal ineffectual football matters - "small-talk"?<br />
<br />
So it is that LineBallTennis - Clapham Common co-joins its activities in tennis coaching for one-and-all, with geo-political campaigning activistm (and merchandising exclusive brand tennis goods). LineBallTennis recently committed to the UK Labour Party cause in helping them till 01/12/2020 to get the man of the hour and "the ideals 4 now" elected (starting with 3rd May elections <b>to over-turn a 40-years led local Tory Council - Wandsworth</b>). As per the activists Tweets we distribute via LBT principal Krishna through @LineBallTennis. All "RTs and Follows" appreciated but never for propaganda purpose, only towards the truth in interpretation. (12-Apr-18 - KS).<br />
<br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668611637680833416.post-18470406470379102312017-06-01T22:29:00.001+01:002017-11-06T14:45:08.745+00:00Think Global, Act Local - DRAFTAnd another phrase or philosophy we at LineBallTennis - Clpahma like is "<b>Everything Is Connected</b>". So we join-the-dots for these global and local thoughts and actions:<br />
<br />
> Eventually and actually "Brexit"<br />
>Manipulated electoral populism of Trump victory<br />
>Le Pen defeated but Macron is more Hollande<br />
>Corbyn victory possibility & implications:<br />
>Re-Nationalisation of Railway & Utilities in UK<br />
> Green Economy From Climate Change Actuality<br />
>40 years of right-wing agenda changes cycles (neoliberalism or Friedman / Hayak economics)<br />
>Celebrity fashion & popular culture fostered to sell globalisation <br />
<br />
So we write about "<b>over-crowding in turnover-economies</b>" in broader or global meaning, and then relate that to a local context - even possibly a tennis one, as per the blog!<br />
<br />
For instance principals at LineBallTennis supported "Brexit". LBT supported "Leave" campaign due to over-crowding in numerous aspects of everyday life; as an instance, the London Underground's Northern Line, is filth of an old line with assortments connecting north and south of the Thames. As one of the earliest tube-lines it was not built to accommodate such commuter traffic. <b>Yet regionalisation of the UK into Europe means UNLIMITED Europeans</b>. Where in fact there have always been European moving to London to live work and make home, but not on the scale of movement or influx since the EU membership. This was not in the capacity considerations when the tube-lines were planned. Aboriginal UK citizens never bought-in to idea that you were a "racist" for abandoning the European Union project, particularly to find national identity and not be lost and crowded-out, in a forever and faster changing England. But that, "State of the Nation" demands more nationalism and socialism, and less globalist expansion by countries and companies - i.e. massive "commercial and land grab", via Freedom of Movement (which Britain will test-case via triggering Aricle 50 to Brexit). As if the exit process is not as simple as saying to EU: "This is not your "Treasure Islands" mate "F*** O**!"<br />
<br />
Of course that distinct <b>European countries are heading towards a Federal States of Europe via EU</b>, exactly like the mess of American states, other wise known as U.S.A; a diaspora populous all heralding from somewhere and nowhere! If we are that mixed and lost in identity already, so soon may that end. Lets fix an abode and address, at least for the sake of addressing the elephant in the room, climate change, and the other irreversible damage to the environment as we know it by a few "stupid white men" - <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stupid_White_Men">title of book</a> by Michael Moore. Then think of the USA / America as an example of a migrant society and what federalism had done for it! Think of States such as Illinois, and ghetto cities such as Detroit. Is this the role model we want to follow in the 21st century, one which has been badly re-enacted from old bad Europe days of imperialism? <br />
<br />
A gathering and grouping of anything is a "regionalisation", just as "nationalisation" remotely meant nation-wide railway and utilities networks. Language is dynamic and meanings associated to words change. "Nationalisation" more probably means business operating within the remit of the national government, as British Railways once was.<br />
If you are still following the train-of-logic: the regionalisation of areas and powers of Europe into countries, while fighting over them, was pre-occupation in pre-War era. In principal, togetherness unity and love of differences and cooperation without wars is INDEED the ideal; but all it actually exploitatively and effectively means is Lidl Aldi Starbucks MacDonalds and other multi-national companies - MNCs. <b>Commercial expansion is the much less publicized essence of the EU and other multilateral groupings and organisations.</b> For instance Virgin Trains is partly owned by DeutscheBahn, which is the government owned German highways authority. The EU membership facilitated such sovereign-state cross-border deals.<br />
<br />
LBT are not cynical or hesitant about ideals, but for when it is a mere facade of propaganda we are strongly "anti-globalist", in context of what it in fact means. UKIP, Le Pen, Trump and Gert Wilders etc are such figure-heads for dissent against status-quo establishment; <b>anti-sentiment by populism</b> not often aired or voiced in multi-cultural secular societies. For instance, "America First" as President Trump calls his campaign is "nationalism". In one respects it is supposed to mean "put American interests first" eg bring back jobs offshored in globalisation, including tax-haven tax-dollars / loot. Or in that double-speak of lexicon it maybe interpreted as "lets shut shop to Chinese expansion interests".<br />
<br />
<b>Whether we like it or not the sentiment of the voting public are grass roots of long-term trend reversals.</b> Conservatives' and Margaret Thatcher's ideal of capitalism has run its course in entirety to "excessive capitalism", since 1977. To balance and bring equilibrium, Jeremy Corbyn's opposite doctrine of socialism is a certainly the order of the day; better than more of the same as practised by New Labour and the Tories themselves over last last 40 years to 2017. All this excess in capitalism is highlighted more so in cities, and especially in vogue cities like London with its great history and a magnet for businesses.<br />
<br />
Part II <br />
<br />
So from this "overcrowding of interests" in a global world "geopolitics" contextuality, we get to a local interest Clapham Westside context. So Europeans Antipodeans provincials northerners and others moving to London's fashionable "gateway to the south", Battersea and surrounding wards, Balham and Clapham, wish to send their children or themselves for local tennis courses. They the diaspora of Clapham come across a uppermost name in their search-engine. They then enquire and send their children or themselves to that particular tennis business not aware of local knowledge or other options. The popularity of that singular tennis-vendor inevitably results in stiflingly overcrowded tennis participants - a clue to that maybe 12 to 32 players on just 2 tennis courts! This can be off-putting to the enjoyment of tennis. What can an enthusiast do about it once they have paid in advance and subscribed for a set course of 6 or so group lessons? But unwittingly parents and those adult enthusiasts of tennis are then loyally committed to that business as point of attention for their local tennis interests. All started from a reflex reaction from a 5-minute internet search. This has been the case since late 1990s.<br />
<br />
Do they know local tennis clubs and their membership details like Grafton, Wigmore, Telford, Spencer and Magdalene? They don't even know of Krishna as the local tennis coach, operating under the sole proprietor banner of LineBallTennis, who has been living and playing in the local clubs for over 40 years? Is this not a symptom of overcrowding of a locality that everyone is in blissful ignorance and not knowing their neighbour perhaps an don't even care? <br />

<span style="font-size: large;">LineBallTennis's principal tennis coach at Clapham Common <b>Krishna, has written about the fortunes of Federer</b> so much, that a serialization publishing and TV rights must be on its way to him! The last speculation and observation on Federer's fate from the “local tennis coach” was in July 2015. When Federer was in the final round at Wimbledon, against Djokovic and watched on Centre Court by LineBallTennis & friends, is entitled <a href="http://www.lineballtennis.com/2015/07/revolution-by-deposed-king-federer.html">“Revolution By The Deposed King Federer”</a>. Even after watching the sad defeat of the “King”, Krishna offered this on that blog:<br />
<br />
"<i>I do not believe it is fantasy wishful thinking that Federer can win another grand slam, especially on grass; or that he has just blown his last chance losing to Novak Djokovic in the final of Wimbledon. But moreover, that<b> the chance and opportunity may prevail again</b></i>". Krishna, 22-July-2015 <br />
<br />
We told you so! Returning to the now and after April Fool's Day, the incredulous reversal in competitive fortunes between the older protagonists of international tennis, which this coach at LineBallTennis of Clapham Common well understands from experience of tennis-playing adversaries, <b>is worthy of exposition here. A story of surprise </b>which has seen Federer “the deposed King” clawing-back to number four in the men's world ranking (behind leading troupe of Andrew Murray, Novak Djokovic and Stan Warwinka). </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">"Roger" had initially been at similar world ranking on his way to his first visit to the summit of world tennis in 2002. <b>Federer is only half the story in this "Older Order" restoration story</b>. Following injuries, Nadal has also climbed back to number five in the world, after their latest and recent finals encounter at the Miami ATP Masters, yesterday Sunday on 2nd April 2017. This report follows the west coast USA hard court season peak dubbed "Sunshine Double", the Indian Wells and Miami Open ATP Masters.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
In the space of three months, <b>a sort of older order has been restored to the world of men's tennis</b>, in that of Federer and Nadal are competing in the finals of tournaments, both big and small and back-to-back. That last happened with regularity between 2007-2010 (see their head-to-head table below). Since then to end-2016 they have rarely both met in tournament finals. Only thrice in the final round of French Open 2011, Rome Masters 2013 and Basel 2015. In that six year period the domination of men's tennis has mostly been Djokovic; interspersed with Murray and Warwinka et al winning. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Throughout 2016 there was a changing of guards in the top flight of mens tennis. A year which incredibly saw our own British Murray become world number one; taking the spot from long-reigning new King of tennis from Serbia, Djokovic.</span><br />

<b>The Old King Is Alive!<br />
</b><br />
LineBallTennis said <b>“a sort of older order has been restored”</b> because prior to the three months of this year February to April 2nd, Federer had only defeated Nadal in the final of Basel 2015. Their last encounter. And before that, in a semi-final in 2012 at the Indian Wells Masters. A win Over Nadal which Federer repeated last month in March. So in their eight head-to-head matches since 2012 Federer had only won 2 of them coming into this year. A situation of scant joy against a what we local Clapham Common tennis players and fans of LineBallTennis discuss, as Federer's “ultimate nemesis and foe”. And as if to underlie that head-to-head contest, which saw the Spaniard dominate the one who we worshipfully refer to as “The King Of Tennis”, the statistics are 23-14 in favour of Nadal. More telling is their head-to-head in grand slam encounters, in which Nadal is winning 9-3 and only 4 grand slams less than Federer's total haul of 18, including this year's Australian title. <br />
<br />
For Federer, <b>defeating Nadal three times consequentially is an exceptional novelty feat</b>, from studying their head-to-head statistics. In fact it is four consecutive wins in their personal battle, as Federer conquered Nadal last in 2015 at Basel, their previous meeting. Add to that that the feat was completed in the space of three months of this year between February to April 2017, including a grand slam win in the final of the Australian Open – Federer's 18th Grand Slam; and then striking-down his nemesis to win the ‘Sunshine Double’ (Indian Wells and Miami) titles, what a rejuvenation in fortunes indeed. Their contest for kings of tennis began from 2004, oddly enough at the Miami Masters round of 32, Nadal won that first encounter 13 years ago – unlucky number for some and lucky for others. <br />
<br />
So what has brought about<b> this surprising “novelty feat” from the older establishment of tennis</b>. Aside of the marginal court surface preference, i.e., 10-9 on hard and 2-1 on grass to Federer, while an overwhelming 13-2 on clay for Nadal, we think it is a purely psychological change in the contenders. As also observed by Steve Tignore @tennis or tennis.com here: <a href="http://www.tennis.com/pro-game/2017/04/roger-federer-rafael-nadal-dynamic-miami-open/65171/">With Federer’s win over Nadal in Miami, a rivalry changes dramatically</a>. There are also tactical changes that have been observed by other tennis analysts, but we don't believe these are unknown factors or revelations between giant gladiators who have met in 33 competitive matches. For example, Federer slice-serving wide to the left-handed Nadal into the deuce court, gains some clear advantage in the point. <br />
<br />
To understand our opening statement, <b>“Rafael Nadal is thinking. Roger Federer is playing”</b>, is like knowing the difference and relationship between the power of "action versus words", or “<i>vita contemplativa”</i> or <i>“vita activa”</i>. Federer no longer has a crisis of confidence when he faces his arch rival Nadal. So he does not lose the game-turning points being on the defensive, or on the desperation to be offensive.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Nadal's "Bull" Vitalism</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
Equally contributory to Federer's success is that Nadal, who is 5 years Federer's junior at age 30, is now thinking more or conscience of the ebb-and-flow of the match, and perhaps feeling nerves after <b>the exhuberance of youth and the formidable winning-streaks have both deserted him</b>; in his bold youth he played by mechanically doing with absolute paramount belief; as a younger bulls tends to rage more </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">fiercely</span> than an older one. As when we all produce our best standards of tennis play – some describe this feeling as "being in the zone" - playing without thinking, pure intuition and guts, seiing the ball as big and early as a balloon . <br />
<b><br />
Nadal's invincible will-to-win</b>, whether against Federer or otherwise, has diminished – only slightly - since his return from injuries. As once happened to Federer's polished King status with the arrival of the Spanish bull Nadal - the Moriarty to Sherlock! Nadal would also inevitably have had the 3 successive defeats in their last encounters since 2015 in the back of his mind, so thinking and trying different tactical variations in this fourth encounter in Miami. For example, Nadal's unique revolutions-per-second devastating forehand was not so much in evidence, as observed <a href="http://www.atpworldtour.com/en/news/federer-brain-game-miami-2017-final">here</a> by <a href="http://www.atpworldtour.com/">www.ATPWorldTour.com</a> <br />
<br />
Finally, three further related points of note to this LineBallTennis tennis blog: <br />
<br />
a) Warm congratulations to Australian-born Johanna Konta for becoming <b>the first British-representation of any note to win a women's tennis title</b>. She won the Miami Open women's title conquering Caroline Wozniacki in straight sets. This achievement has been compared to British women's tennis success of some nearly 40 year's ago, when Virginia Wade won Wimbledon in 1977; when the “Sex Pistols” and “punks” were roaming London! <br />
<br />
b) The rest of <b>the year's nine months predictions</b> could envisage recently deposed world no.1 Djokovic not floor the pedal of his Ferrari brand in terms of tennis ambition to regain pole position. He sacked LineballTennis Krishna's idol Boris Becker as coach in November – there is more to life than tennis! We wonder if Murray will hold on to the very unique and long unacquainted British position of being at the summit of world tennis – it's lonely at the top (and after Brexit!). We expect, both the FAMILIAR AND RISING tennis players that Federer beat in his last 10 matches (see below table), including “Bad-Ass-Aussie” Nick Kyrgios, to be making shocks and possibly waves. Add to this mix Fabio Fognini of Italy.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Mostly, LineBallTennis being a joggle of social and environmental activism in passion with tennis pleasure </span><span style="font-size: large;">(see our Tweets @LineBallTennis), seeks good bookmaker </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">betting</span> odds in restoration of King of tennis Federer, once again take his throne in the realm of world tennis. <br />
<br />
c) Roger Federer's incredible statistics was that up until this 4-match head-to-head winning streak against Nadal, <b>he HAD NOT EVEN a hat-trick of back-to-back wins against his bogey-man arch rival</b>. A rivalry begun as noted before, in the Miami Open of 2004. Astonishingly his 20 out of 21 matches this year 2017 has seen him defeated by world No. 81-ranked Evgeny Donskoy. The smart money would take odds on Federer finishing the current year as world No.1.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Roger Federer, the undisputed Grand Slam champion, with 17 career titles,
not only in perspective demolished our very own British Andy Murray (7-5 7-5
6-4) in the semi-final round of The Championships, but in LineBallTennis - LBT
principal Krishna's opinion, signalled that <b>'the old dog' still has life in
him</b> (given fortuitous circumstances of grand slam draws, surface, and
player seeding etcetra). </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">Remember
that Federer is still number two in the official <a href="http://www.atpworldtour.com/en/rankings/singles">ATP World Tour</a> ranking,
indeed if any substantiation to his longevity at the very top of men's tennis
is needed. </span>This change of heart observation of Federer's grand
slam winning chances follows on the heels of LineBallTennis pronouncement in
September 2014 that "<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1668611637680833416#editor/target=post;postID=5160311717279977759;onPublishedMenu=posts;onClosedMenu=posts;postNum=4;src=postname">The

<span style="font-size: large;">The analysis behind why LineBallTennis principal believes <b>'King Roger' still has a winning chance at
the Grand Slams</b> are manifold. Krishna has revised his opinion and stated:</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The perhaps fleeting chance to beat Novak "Nole" was excitedly
anticipated by Krishna, who had triumphantly won Wimbledon ballot tickets to
see the final day's matches on the Sunday at SW19. By the ambience on Centre
Court, the expectation or support for Federer to go all the way was applauded
by most of that exclusive tennis crowd. <b>The crowds' urging and willing of Federer to battle was clearly
one-sided</b>. Only out of British cordial politeness did the crowd seem to
applaud Djokvich's rally victories. Krishna had teasingly mentioned to his
Finals Day companion that he would like to put etiquette aside and really be
partisan in supporting Federer: by booing Novak's immaculate withstanding of
the 'FedEx' barrage.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Technically, <b>Federer was attacking
and playing as aggressive game as ever</b>, and as fans may not have witnessed
in recent years. In other words, playing his best tennis and rightly taking his
game to Novak. Novak became the tireless scampering, acrobatic retrieving and
unnervingly fearless counter-puncher. Federer seemed to inevitably to hit the
net or the excruciating tape from his aggressive flat low drives, in the
set-winning rallies, bar one. For Federer, this Wimbledon tone was different
from the word go: only hardy battle-tank Australian Sam Groth (6-4 6-4 5-7 6-2)
had taken a set off Federer before the final match. Similarly the route to the
final for Mr Djokovich was somewhat straightforward; yet in the quarter-final <b>Kevin Anderson gave Novak a humbling shock</b>
he will not forget in a hurry. A second day carried-on match with a one set
shoot out, especially with a giant big-server on peak performance, should have
finally undone Novak's progress in The Championship (6-7 6-7 6-1 6-4 7-5); if
not earlier after the South African lead the world number one and reigning king
2-0 in sets on the prior day. Mr Anderson will not be getting a Christmas
card or crate of champagne from the Federer camp this year, in Krishna's jovial
opinion!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> To humbly acknowledge Novak Djokovich as reigning King is deserved
valour and just: with 9 singles grand slam titles it is petty and witless to
call Djokovich a 'pretender' to the crown! And especially with the other
established protagonist to the crown, Rafael Nadal stuttering with injuries and
regaining his monstrous self-belief. The margin of victory between Novak and
Roger's matches are mostly a fine line, as testified by a unique <b>20-20
head-to-head count in all matches</b>, as shown on this up to date July'15 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djokovic%E2%80%93Federer_rivalry">Wikipedia
page</a> about their special rivalry. Interesting to note that after this final
encounter at Wimbledon Novak leads Federer 7-6 in head-to-head Grand Slam
matches. </span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">One should expectantly feel there is more to come from this crescendo great rivalry
Djokovic Vs. Federer. LineBallTennis wants to be part of this s Federer
Revolution and is in early planning for a US Open tour for its clients and
friends.</span> </div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black;"><b>p.s.</b> Talking of mutineers and rebels to
the Crown, LineBallTennis acknowledge and hail the enormity of dread-locked
Dustin Brown, of Germany, in defeating the great Rafael Nadal (7-5 3-6 6-4
6-4), even if seeded Wimbledon number 10. The unique Dustin @DreddyTennis came into
Wimbledon main draw via the qualifiers at Roehampton. Where LBT’s Krishna greets
him frequently, after first meeting him in 2012. Dustin’s win is a coup d’état of gargantuan proportions, not mere revolution. Also, didn’t the
win draw some parallels with<b> another
German who thirty years ago</b> at Wimbledon, as a shy brash 17 year old, upset
the tennis establishment with his incredulous never-to-be-repeated Wimbledon
Mens Final victory. Yes you know who Krishna means: ‘The Wunder kid’ and ‘Boom
Boom’. Long rein the legends!<span> </span></span></span></div>

The Lambeth <b>council-owned tennis courts have been taken over by a big business operator</b>,
Julian Cousins, and his team of tennis coaches. These coaches are using
the courts for commercial purposes, leaving very few courts available
for public use. This commercial exploitation is costing local residents
their access to the municipal facility and is a clear violation of the
public's right to access and use the courts. The only other option
available is to book with Krishna Siva, a.k.a. LineBall Tennis, who is
the local rival to the commercial exploitation of the courts. It is high

(under Covid19 restrictions!). The UK's governing body for Tennis is
the Lawn Tennis Association - LTA. They have issued a statement, which
can be read fully on their website:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: transparent;">"<span style="font-size: small;"><i>Players from different
households can now play doubles together as long as they stay two metres
apart as far as possible, and small group coaching for up to six people
(including coaches) can resume.</i></span>".</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: transparent;">So Krishna, principal tennis coach, is organising by invitation small groups of five other players at a time to attend on-court and off-court holiday tennis camp.
This "small group" is not so unusual for Krishna to adapt as he always
believed and preached smaller groups to benefit teaching and learning
principles in tennis. Especially in comparison to the over-crowded
multi-sport camp run by rival coaches. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>> </b>Krishna, managing the LineBall Tennis<b> </b>enterprise
is licking his wounds after his political activism to get a relevant
progressive government installed. After the 12 December 2019 Christmas
Elections he is deflated by the electorate. He combines the
tennis-coaching and stringing enterprise with his activism in financial
political management. Have you checked out his Twitter account
@LineBallTennis? Look out for his articles. After some self-promotion!
it remains to pass on the <b>Season's Best Wishes! and Happy Holidays. </b><span style="font-size: small;">(KS 19-Dec-19)</span><br /></span><br />

finished our successful and enduring "Strictly Come Juniors Holiday

who entrusted their "precious" juniors to tennis with him. Actual and

may know that Clapham Common Bowling Green by the westside of the

of the area will disappear unless YOU take action. We have more on this

An opportunity to save it by joining a proposed competitive league of

(11-Jan-2019) British tennis and world tennis learnt the destiny of Sir
Andrew Murray OBE, from his own words: he is to retire from tennis this
year. LineBall Tennis did not investigate or research the severity of
his hip injury that forced out of tennis last January. However,
principal coach Krishna did hear from Andrew Castle, former British
number one tennis player, that Murray's return to tennis was doubtful.

due to too many tennis coaches. LBT's principal tennis coach Krishna
has also complained directly to Lambeth Council, which oversees how the
outsourced municipal facility is run. Percieving me as lone disgruntled
voice they have not heard or heeded the complaints. So they would like
the public to write to Lesley Ambler, Commissioning Officer for Sports
& Leisure at Lambeth via email: LAmbler@Lambeth.gov.uk</span></span></span></span><br />

The background to the over-crowding at Clapham Common tennis courts is
a single coach who hires additional external tennis coaches<b> to run a tennis coaching business</b>
(when there are sufficent local LTA clubs set-up for that specific
purpose). These coaches then get licensed by Lambeth and both contract
for this coach or independently. </span></span></span></span><br />

to update our local tennis news. The freak weather has been headlined
as euphemistically as "Mini Beast From The East". Dubbed "Mini" this
time because we had a week long
of this Siberian tundra weather pattern in the first week of March; due
to irregular rotation of the jet-stream above Scandinavia which
gathered the weather-front from Siberian tundra. The dumbing-down
mainstream media called it the "The Beast From The East", instead of
what it really is "CLIMATE CHANGE".</span></span></span></span><br />

Those chance visitors to our LBT webpages will know that the principal
tennis coach Krishna is an activist these days (The Weatherman
Underground) - a far cry from his trading floor investment broking and management past! And that he propounds the not-too-difficult-to-comprehend and evidence-based ecological science that <b>man-made climate-change is probable and actual</b>. So we like to believe that President Donald Trump is not naive to the #climatechange science but his methods are designed to
circumvent widespread economic panic. Ask Krishna or follow his tweets
(@LineBallTennis) if you'd like to know more about that bizarre logic
attributed to Trump.</span></span></span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">> <b>Prices & Practices of Clapham Common Tennis Coaches:</b> LineBallTennis serving Clapham Common is charging the best value tennis service without doubt; with less academic and more practical knowledge and experience. We have decided as a forthcoming Local Tennis News to compare coaching practices and prices charged by the excessive number of coaches. This critical price and service comparison is serving as local public information for parents and users; as well as considering "All Star Tennis" service delivered at rival Wandsworth Common, across the way.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">> <b>Autumn Equinox Sept.22-23:</b> Having entered the time of year where the days are shorter and the nights longer (bad news for day-light tennis!), i.e. crossed the Autumn Equinox, we present the final update to the LineBallTennis Junior Tennis Summer Camp. In pictures, we show the juniors on holiday in the sun mostly, and enjoying tennis and camaraderie.[KS Updated 11-Oct-17]</span><br />

After cancelling and refunding his juniors of his Summer Tennis Camp, LineBallTennis - Clapham Common local coach Krishna, asked a sympathetic passer-by if it is just a wet "British summer" or is it "climate change" as well. The answer was "both".</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Krishna is believer in man-made thermal pollution WILL change climate and environment. As if to prove it, he came across this book "Heat" by Arthur Herzog, one of the earliest fiction on climate-change in disaster scenario. Is it fiction?</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>> Its Not About The Quantity Its The Quality, Stupid!</b> That was the way of things for the end-May half-tem camp that LineBallTennis - Clapham organised impromptu. We, or just Krishna the LBT principal, had </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">just </span>three junior players as camp starters between Wednesday and Friday from 10-1pm - regular star, Kaia, and brother and sister duo Oliver and Ava.

<span style="font-size: large;">The full camp course attendant Kaia (shown above), aged 9, said she really got a lot out of <b>the focused pro's attention</b> (Semi-western forehand, serving from scratch-back position and devising a circuit).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">New comers Oliver and Ava, could only stay the first hour of three. They'd arranged swimming for afterwards, not knowing about junior half-term camp - which was little publicized and impromptu. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Oliver who stayed behind from attending swimming on last day of camp, due to an ear infection, <b>has started a rivalry with Kaia</b>. The younger Kaia overcame stronger Oliver 3-1 in games, with latter talking of "pressure", but coolly handling "McEnroesque" outburst of former. Epic encounter with long rallies on a near-full court!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">On the Thursday 1st June, Krishna spotted and stopped Andrew Castle for a selfie for this web-page, and <b>chat reminder about "quality not quantity" of tennis</b>. Andrew is a former British number one tennis pro who is remembered by LBT for a great match with Boris Becker, and a current commentator on TV and radio, especially sensational LBC radio. Andrew is local resident who known to LBT, said casually he was off to Wimbledon in the afternoon.

He and Krishna started developing a backhand drive and general training and practice in tennis, in the search for <b>the Holy Grail of Backhands</b>. He was noted in the end-of-year post as the most-improved adult tennis player of 2015. In early April while playing on artificial hard-court surface at Wigmore LTC he turned his ankle. Later he found he had fractured his ankle in two places, and consequently has been able train with LBT on sunday mornings. Paul's afternoon weekend playing partner Maurice is looking for stand-in players, and Krishna is matching time-convenience and playing-standards to make arrangements. Please call drop a line to LBT if your available after 2pm in the weekends. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">An end of year mention for Krishna's most-improved adult tennis player of 2015: Paul (as pictured above with Krishna), was at the last tennis lesson of 2015 on 20th December. He and Krishna have been working particularly on improving the back-hand; when LBT's Krishna first trained him, Paul was reverting to only a back-hand slice, or more aptly a chopped block. With inveterate habit Paul still deploys his trusted back-hand option, but has in his tennis-strokes artillery a strong backhand drive, with top spin too. The search for <b>The Holy Grail Of Backhand</b> (for Paul, </span><span style="font-size: small;">Stan Wawrinka is role-model), including re-progamming natural instincts continues unabated at #Clapham Common public tennis courts.

<br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-size: 13.5pt;">Indeed <b>Mr Federer defeated Novak Djokovich</b> in straight sets 7-5 6-2 in rather dominant fashion. Not only was Roger aggressively taking the game to Novak, but what was different from recent matches between the two players, was that the former was making the winners, hitting the lines, getting the net-tape luck and predominantly stronger on backhand with fewer mis-hits. Federer was relaxed but determined at the crucial stages. LBT believe his "wait-and-see" attitude combined with poor luck at pivotal points in their Grand Slam Finals' matches at Wimbledon and US Open earlier this year was why the deposed king of tennis revolution is STILL only in the making!

<span style="font-size: small;">Krishna found less lavish hospitality, but nonetheless enjoyed a second consecutive visit on the 4th day Wednesday evening session at the O2 Arena. The end of season tennis finale lived up to its name, as a jittery doubles contest featuring Ivan Dodig and Marcelo Melo versus <b>Jean-Julien Rojer</b> and <b>Horia Tecau</b> (eventual semi-finalist & Championship doubles winners) was followed by <b>David Ferrer</b> versus <b>Stan</b> <b>Wawrinka</b>. The latter being bigger badder player slogged through fighting fierce "El Torro" Ferrer 7-5 6-2. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">After the the doubles session Krishna was wandering around the entrance blocks of the O2 Arena stadium, and spotted one-half of a legendary doubles duo (see below pictures). This legend, commenting on my suggestion of a let-down performance by <b>Ivan Dodig</b>'s partner <b>Marcelo Melo</b>, <b>Peter Fleming</b> coolly replied "These things happen!".(ks 24Nov'15)</span><br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-size: 13.5pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>> And finally, a mention in LBT’s Local Tennis News for the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">17<sup>th</sup> May, Nepal Benefit Fund-Raiser</b> event organized by much-liked Sunil. He is normally serving in the court booking huts, and increasingly playing tennis at Clapham Common courts. Sunil, who is descended from Nepal, organized a lively event with 5-piece band, raising money for the recent tragic earthquake that hit that country. And I am sure for the famed courage of the Gurkhas, some local regulars at the public tennis courts turned-up to play social doubles tennis and sample Nepalese buffet cuisine. For those who are not familiar with the geography: the highest mountain in the world, the Himalayas are nearby, with many Nepalese having lost their lives acting as mountain-guides “Sherpas” to the venturing mountineers. Those local Clapham Common sympathizers, not able to attend the fund-raiser event may like to donate to directly to Sunil, to see money put to a worthy cause.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">> LineBallTennis have NOT been in <b>winter hibernation</b>! We have been on the Clapham Common tennis courts in damp dreary cold weather, and also in glorious foretaste of Spring sunshine too. <b>Thank you to the hard-core tennis practicing players</b> for keeping LBT busy especially during weekends in the quiet seasonal period. You know who you are without the star name mentions - LBT gratitude.</span><span style="font-size: medium;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: medium;">> After the recent mid-term school break the children are restarting their tennis with us. Here we give a special mention to <b>the third member of the "Three Musketeers" Behruz</b>. He is shown in the picture below performing a balancing-act to collect tennis balls on his racquet during 1st of March Sunday squad drills. Behruz's is 7 years of age and joins his fellow musketeers, Hippolyte and Cyprien in LBT's Local Tennis News (see <span lang="EN-US" style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.lineballtennis.com/2014/10/local-tennis-news-archives.html" target="_blank">Local Tennis News - Archive</a>)</span> for his fuming outrage for Hippolyte having knocked the balls off his racquet earlier in the lesson. In the picture below, after his tantrum remonstrations, Behruz displays himself calm collected yet with telling mischievous smile. Behruz has also enhanced the "know-your-tennis-court" game by suggesting we not only race to the named place on the tennis court, but HOW we get there e.g. "By sidestepping etc, the first one to the net!"</span><br />

Pavilion Fire at Clapham Common Westside<span style="font-size: large;">30 October '14: What a Day! for local local resident and tennis coach Krishna Siva of LineBallTennis. Starting with hastily arranged meeting in the Clapham Common Westside, Bowling Green clubhouse. T</span><span style="font-size: large;">hrashing out rivalries and disputes </span><span style="font-size: large;">with Lambeth Tennis Network (LTN) officers from Lambeth Council and two other tennis coaches. Then, a last-but-one lesson of the half-term holidays with dynamic sister and brother duo Juliana and Anthony for pleasurable two-hours. Afterwards rushing to attend to personal family stuff, before Krishna, yours truly, was involved in a fire drama:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Walking homeward from Clapham Junction at about 5.45 in the evening on Thursday, past the Clapham Common Westside, Bowling Green and Tennis Courts - SW4 9AN, Krishna notices bystanders peering at at the tennis premises from outside by the railings. The sensation causing spectacle was a FIRE in the corner of the Bowling Green clubhouse veranda! </span><span style="font-size: large;">Sensing the emergency and wishing to help on seeing the distress to a place where he has played tennis since the age of 8 years he acted. </span><span style="font-size: large;">So Krishna rushes in and sees people and kids standing around outside in the dark reacting with mobile phones to the spectacle. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Deciding that the fire was small enough to put out, Krishna empties a metal bin (spotted in pictures below) and rushes to men's toilet basin taps. Having filled the metal bin with little water he carries it to the front pavilion and splashes it on flames' source underneath veranda benches. Alex, the park attendant on duty in the hut but now out, shouted "Well done Siva!" after seeing the fire-fighting efforts. A young coach David who had been sitting in his car during a break had followed Krishna's dash into the tennis courts, later shouted a warning to the effect of "Siva the roof might collapse!", as Krishna was IN the veranda splashing water with the bin. After pouring the third pail of water, gathered in the sickly smoke-filled men's toilet, and with Dan's efforts (another LTN coach) using a fire extinguisher, the veranda bench-fire seemed subdued. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The corner roof of the pavilion WAS ALSO on fire by then! the roof insulation had caught fire with flames going up the timber paintwork. Then when the "boys in blue", the heroes at London Fire Brigade turned up (Krishna has contracted at LFB - HQ in 2006), yours humbly departed the scene leaving the professionals to do their stuff; on his way home taking the first mobile phone picture in the dark as below, where smoke can be seen, if magnified.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">As to the cause of the fire at the venerable Clapham Common municipality building there is speculation that it was deliberately started by someone taking a personal grudge to the two vagrant amorous couple using the pavilion veranda as their summer 'sleeping rough' abode. As LineBallTennis Tweeted, with morning-after picture, on the Friday "Some mindless morons have set fire to vagrant bedding at the Bowling Green clubhouse". This Tweet was picked-up by Wandsworth Guardian, the local newspaper.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Coincidentally or by design, while I was drawing water in the metal bin from the men's toilet in an attempt to put fire out, the vagrant man mentioned above, whom yours truly the local tennis coach recognises, popped his head in and asked about the commotion. Krishna hurriedly replied "Your stuff is on fire!". To which he exclaimed surprise and repeated the fact, to his partner presumably. While at the scene of the fire I recognised twice a woman who flatly denied any children's pranks for the fire, when I suggested possibility of puerile arsonist. Was it her children whom I had seen near the fire - maybe they spotted it first. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">While following the U.S. Open 2014 Grand Slam (GS) semi-finals on Saturday I flipped from a state of ecstatic surprise to beyond utter dismay and disgust! No I am not "bi-polar" labelled throughput of gutter social workers, or given to fickleness and mood-swings. The late evening disgusted mood was caused by Roger Federer's defeat to Marin Cilic. The latter player and US Open No.2 seed whom I venerate(d) as Royalty of tennis, moreover as the tennis world's current King, was the bane of my evening. My stubborn refusal to accept that "The King is Dead" from Federer's lack of titles (ie 1 grandslam from finals), was finally delivered its death knell on Saturday!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My initial euphoria stemmed from the first of the semi-final matches on "Super Semi Saturday".

This phenomenon is not only due to the suburbia-feel surroundings of the public tennis courts at Clapham Common Westside and being in "Nappy Valley" zone, but in large part probably due due to finally having a British tennis Grand Slam tournament winner. Andrew Murray winning Wimbledon in 2013, as the first British male since the <b>late great Fred Perry's in 1936</b><span style="color: red;"> </span>is a monumental feat. A forerunner to that climax event was another grand sporting occasion of all great sporting occasions, "The 2012 London Summer Olympics".<br />

Clapham and Balham Tennis Aficionados<br />
<br />
Access to those Clapham tennis courts via Nightingale Lane (described by estate agents as a leafy lane of suburbia), is an affluence befitting the high culture of tennis. Neighbouring the Clapham tennis courts is the border of Balham so strictly speaking we will refer to the area as Clapham and Balham. And broadly the district is in the boroughs of Lambeth and Wandsworth respectively. The neighbourhood residents may have seen the former <b>British tennis No.1 Andrew Castle</b> in the area, or on his way to commentary during Wimbledon fortnight and his presenter jobs in television and radio. Also living nearby and spotted at Wandle Leisure Centre among other spots in nearby Wandsworth Town is <b>Annabel Croft</b> - a lush darling of British women's tennis exemplifying the English rose of beauty. And not too shabby at tennis either, as some would say! Talking of affluent tennis society in suburban Clapham and Balham, on the borders of Conservative Party flagship Wandsworth Borough and Labour-run Lambeth Borough is a knighted hedge fund supremo's residence. <b>Sir Michael Hintze</b> is a lesser known Australia-descended resident in Clapham, spotted hob-nobbing with Royalty and V.I.Ps at the Royal Wedding of Kate and William, also in lucky 2013!
