Bob Bryan’s volley is very compact and is it with little spin. This produces very consistent ball. He starts with his hands low and his racquet just a little above his wrist. He prepares racquet head at the ball height and hits through the volley with little spin. He is very comfortable taking the volley with an open stance.

I have a mailing list of 1,250 people. I have send out a request for help. Should I just send your link out or is something extra I can say to help in my newsletter. I’m a tennis coach and I’ve housed refugees from Ukraine. I have much respect for your country. —Kevin Pease West Falmouth Cape Cod Massachusetts United States of America A response from the Ukraine Air Force
Good day! We are thankful for your attention towards our project. Your support is very important for us! We carry out combat missions and defend our country and our land from invaders. But there is a catastrophically small amount of airplanes. Unfortunately, at the moment, this problem cannot be solved at the interstate level. So we decided to take the initiative into our own hands and, as volunteers, ask the world for help! First of all, we ask billionaires and benefactors-millionaires - to buy and give us a plane. At the same time we are very excited by the reactions of ordinary people who have average incomes, but still want to help us. So far, we do not have an account to which you can transfer the money. But we will definitely open it in the near future and show it on our website, as well as send it to your email. We ask you to spread information about us in social networks, on YouTube and Instagram, to bring the information to government and businessmen in your country. This will help us a lot. The link for the expansion of our video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foPUxMvXbhk Our Website (English version is on the right side on top of the website): https://buymeafighterjet.com/ Your contribution will be extremely important for saving people's lives! May God protect you Kevin! Kind regards, Members of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksi But (pronounced bute) is now in Chernivtsi, a town on the border of Romania in Ukraine. “Chernivtsi is viewed as one of Western Ukraine's main cultural centers. The city is also considered one of Ukraine's important educational and architectural sites. Historically a cosmopolitan community, Chernivtsi was once dubbed "Little Vienna" and "Jerusalem upon the Prut".” (Wiki) If you were there it would be hard to leave. It’s art and architecture I’ve seen in my college Art History class at Umass, Amherst. Religious overtones are abundant.
Oleksi is a tennis teaching professional who had an outdoor club in Kiev and is anxious to return to his home and teach his students. There isn’t much opportunity to teach in Chernivsti. From reading the news it seems that if Ukraine were given, loaned, sold, or bartered a few jets (yes, a reconditioned Mig will do) then it could play on a level field. Not having enough air support gives the Russian Air Force a pass to murder innocent men, women and children. Romania is trying to cough up some of its defective grounded Migs. The Ukrainian aeronautical engineering is vastly superior to many countries. They can make these things work well and become formidable. This passionate coach wants to develop students but I’m not sure of how many he will get based upon the condition of the sky! His international students will not opt in. His only students are likely to be fellow Kiev residents who are returning home hoping for a better life than the bread lines in Romania or the shelters in Poland. They really have no where else to go. The regions surrounding Ukraine are largely poor. Many refugees from Ukraine are deciding to head back home and take a chance that they will win the war and they will get their homes back. The United States to date is not taking enough refugees— 100,000. Close to four million have left the country. Many Ukrainians will return to their driveways as the Russian forces recede. But until that day happens, a Ukrainian cowboy pilot walks into a bar and says, “what do you have to do to get a mig around here?” The bar tender says, “make your own.” Perhaps then, Ukrainian Migs will fly overhead proudly securing its flock from flying birds of prey. "Hello, Kevin! Going to Kyiv in several days, it's much safer there now. People going back to Kyiv slowly. Very good news that USA gives us a lend lease. So it seems that the final goal is to destroy Russian army, which is now very possible. We are waiting for the battle for Donbas, actually its already going. Main battle will be at Slovyansk, if we loose it, it will be a big problem, if not - russians can't go further. After that we should go attack, in 2 weeks we will get proper weapon for this. We will loose Mariupol unfortunately, nothing we can do as I heard. Russia lost already 20 000 troops, mNy if them don't want to fight. The best solution for us is do not make any peace contract until we will do a huge damage to the ru army. But the bad thing is that that bombs will never stop now, and will live like in Israel or even worst. But we will see..." -Oleksi There is a problem defending the sky of Ukraine. The Ukraine air force has 50 fighter jets while Russia has 500 committed to Ukraine. The Ukraine air force has more pilots than jets. These air craft are pushed each day to 50 sorties while the Russian air force flies 200. Despite being out numbered the Ukr force are highly experienced dog fighters and combined with their missile defense system have been able to stall the Russian attack. After making some quick calculations I've discovered if every citizen of NATO contributed 1.00 we could buy 25 Ukraine fighter jets, at a cost of 25 million each, which is full retail pricing. You realize that 1 billion people populate NATO. If each person in NATO contributed 4.00 the price of a cheap beer on Cape Cod, then they'd have 100 fighter jets. That would for sure be a game changer with the ingenuity of the Ukrainians. It would cost 4 Billion Dollars. And not one penny would come from the U.S. government. Or any other government! The way wars are fought are changing before our eyes. And the internet has changed everything. People now have more power to impact the world than ever before. We no longer have to watch things happen. We can either make things happen or wonder what the heck just happened! It's up to us. This is a link to buy a fighter jet for Ukraine! Consider tossing in 1.00 or more when they have it accepting contributions. This site is managed by Ukrainian pilots crowd funding. This is the youtube vidoe and link for "Buy me a fighter jet". youtu.be/foPUxMvXbhk. Happy Patriot's Day! --Kevin Pease Their flight to Sacramento left on Monday April 4 at 5:40 pm. It was a quick ride to Logan International. On the ride up we talked about Moldova, Romania, Bulgaria, and Ukraine. Maryna and Timur easily switch tongues between Ukrainian and English with Timur as interpreter. After conferring in Ukrainian, they both explained the differences to me—Moldova is the poorest, then Romania, and then Bulgaria. They agreed with each other that Bulgaria was the most like Ukraine in quality of life but all of these other countries had high concentrations of gypsies. Maryna explained that Ukraine has a “middle” life. People were not rich but not poor. Ukrainians can have “good life”, a flat, food and a job making a relative 600 U.S. dollars per month is successful. Overall the standard of Living has increased every year while poverty levels have decreased. The poverty level of Russia is double that of Ukraine. Maryna explained that much of Russia is poor. I gathered what we in the U.S. think is poor and what the countries previously mentioned feel is poor is different. She also explained that Ukrainians work hard for what they have.
Seeking to change the conversation I asked, “What is your favorite country?” “Spain,” Maryna said. “It’s beautiful there. Lots of fields. Why do you ask about other countries?” “I’ve never to been to any of these places. I want to know what you think. Tell me about how live your week.” Maryna explained she was at work some days at 6 am and returned home as late as 10 pm. I thought of Mitch McDeere, from John Grisham’s, “The Firm”. She would teach tennis to students in Kiev at various courts around the city, take Timur to golf clubs, and manage sports programs at a large sports facility just outside of Kiev. On weekends she tended to her antique shops! And then go to the Sports Club. She said she is happiest talking with her friends, teaching tennis, and taking Timur to his golf training and events. There is no day off, just days. She had a happy life. “I want to be a golf professional on the PGA tour. Someday I’ll return to my country,” said Timur. Maryna listened and agreed nodding her head. A remarkable goal stated simply. Timur stated, “If I can’t do it, I’ll be back here walking Mandy (my Coon Hound Rescue). We all laughed hard. They walked her several times per day and to the beach. “Like ocean. Like people,” Maryna said, referring to Falmouth. Timur and Maryna have found people here kind. Many have sent cards for food and clothes. They thank you all. Now they are in California. Timur and Maryna are chasing his golf dream. Maryna is making contacts where she may find work teaching tennis soon. I’ve started a go fund me account that’s doing well. They had their life in Kiev taken from them. They have only the clothes on their backs. They’d really appreciate it if you would share or donate to their GoFundMe. gofund.me/fa78deb0 This past Monday morning at 1:00 am I picked them up at Logan airport. Maryna and her 16 year old son, Timur were waiting each with one medium bag of luggage and a set of golf clubs. They had flown in from Washington from Frankfort and departed from Bucharest, Romania, after taking a northern train from Sophia, Bulgaria. Before leaving Bucharest with his Mom, Timur was anxiously awaiting for her as she had taken a train from Kiev to meet him in Sophia, Bulgaria where he was staying safely with friends. From there they traveled back to Bucharest to fly to Frankfort. A United States Traveler was giving his air miles to Ukrainians.
Maryna showed me a picture of a flat that had been destroyed next to hers. The destruction in the city is appreciating daily as missiles land on homes. The city is a ghost town. The club where she managed several sports and coached tennis is now a Russian Command Center. Three million citizens populated Kiev. Not now. The Russian ground forces do not enter the city as they suffer great losses when they attempt to take it. Timur is in the process of contacting golf courses in the area and has made progress. I have a contact who is working on this. He may be teaching to juniors and training. He is listed as a scratch golfer and the number one ranked Ukrainian junior in the 16’s. He was was getting ready for international competition when the war began. Maryna worked from 7 am to 9 or 10 pm at night to fund his golf and extra schooling to learn English which he speaks quite well. Maryna was former top five in Russia as a junior tennis player. Timur is an exceptional tennis player as well, but his first love is golf. I’m learning a bit of Russian which is easily understood by Ukrainians. Learning Russian as an American is easier than learning the difficult annunciations of the Ukrainian language. They both enjoy my Coon Hound, Mandy and have met my son, Eric who lives with me. Eric is a tennis pro for the Marion Indoor Tennis Club, Menauhant Yacht Club, and the Boy's Tennis Coach at Falmouth High. This morning we ate rice with milk and sugar, bread with cheese and boiled eggs. It was explained to me that rice with milk is good for digestion and that left over food is given to the dog as a meal and given to stray dogs that roam Ukraine. Also, they compost for gardens. Timur, when seeing the heavy rain said to me, "Don't throw the dog into that." It is a Ukrainian saying that speaks of how one might discuss bad weather of the day. I had to explain that my dog dog has her own special food for sensitive stomach and skin. I could hardly explain it without holding back laughing. And they said the dog they had ate bread with cheese, rice with milk and boiled eggs. Nothing was ever wasted and their dog also enjoyed pizza from time to time. I reached out to Oleksii, my tennis contact from the Ukraine who when we last spoke was in Chernivtsi. Chernivtsi is a border town to Romania. He’d like to be on the other side of the border but realizes he must stay. He has not signed into "the office" where you will immediately go into fighting service. He has not broken any law, it's not something he wants to sign up for and yet he cannot leave the country. He is involved with some some sort of service in the town but of what I do not know. He has already shared incredible information regarding the assessment of the war from inside the country. He’d rather be teaching tennis. I hope to hear from him again soon. I'll update more later. --Kevin The world got smaller. I’m in the process of locating a Ukrainian family to my home for a few months, to give them a breath of air. She was huddled in an Kiev underground shelter with her sister when we first spoke. Her 16 year old son, Timur was in Sophia, Bulgaria. She was the Tennis Director of a great club and former top five in Russia, and her son, the number one golfer of the Ukraine. They already had visa’s for travel. Maryna is an international tennis coach (ITF). I’ll update their progress soon. She left her sister in Keiv and is trying to get her out. Maryna took a midnight train to Romania and then to Sophia, Bulgaria, just in time. She had something most don’t, a visa!
I'm also talking to a good pro named Oleksii via email who can't get out. He’s on the Romanian border. He hasn’t had to fight yet. I’ll share with you our conversations: 3/3/22 Hello, I’m a tennis professional from the United States, located on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, on the East Coast. I googled tennis coaches and found you there in the Ukraine. Are you safe? Did you leave the country. I’m worried for the people of the Ukraine. Perhaps you or some other coach (male or female) needs help leaving if they choose. Or a place to stay if coming to the United States. —Kevin Pease Kevinpeaseschooloftennis.com Kpsotennis@gmail.com USPTA (R) Hello, Kevin! Nice to hear from you. Don't want to describe you what I passed these days. Now I stay alone with my friend at Ukrainian border. I was lucky to move my parents, girlfriend and friends parents abroad in EU. I can't cross the border because of the Presidents law, he said if you have a war or some weapon experience pls join army or some territory defence group. I never hold a weapon in my hands. In Kiev I had my own club at outdoor courts, dreamt to built an indoor club there, right in Kiev. I had many students in Ukraine, all over the world, some familys close to goverment. I became a Bidi Badu tennis clothes distributor in Ukraine. Never worked on a club. Now I'm lost everything. I just moved everybody I can to the border, now I'm alone and feel bad and lost everything. I want to go back home but further it goes less chances to come back, seems will have huge damages, but I will see. Waiting for opportunity to cross the border and I'll ask for the help to work maybe. Thank you for the message. Oleksii, I understand your position. Please contact me if I can help any of your friends or family that need a place to stay outside of the Ukraine. If you need a place to stay if you leave let me know. You are always welcome. I pray for you and your country. Also, if you need to email. You can anytime. 3/9/22 Are you safe Oleksii? 3/11/22 Hello, Kevin! I'm still in Chernivtsi, close to the border, with my friends. Waiting for the Buelorussian invasion today. Hope that it's fake. Thank you for the message. Want to cross the border but I can't... ср, 9 мар. 2022 г., 15:38 Kevin Pease Tennis Professional <kpsotennis@gmail.com>: 3/12/22 Oleksii, Keep yourself safe a possible. Hopefully this war ends soon. Are you going to stay near the border. —Kevin Sent from my iPhone 3/13/22 Yes, i'm going to stay close to the border at least for 1 more month. Will try to work here to have money for food and leaving, but tennis is not popular here at all. I never served in Army, no sence for me to go there, im much productive in other way, in peacfull time. Lets wait, maybe they will open borders, or maybe it will be peace soon, who knows. But longer we stay here, longer our expectations for a war duration. If it wont stop this month we expect 1 year minimum of the war duration, and it couses much more troubles to leave normal life.Turkey doesnt do any sanctions to Russia. Russians has many jet and we dont. Total amount 450 russians airplanes, only around 50 are down ny our forces. Many legioners all over the world coming to ukraine, professionals, thats bery good. My cousin leaves in Chernigiv cant leave the country... Will keep you in touch what is happening. вс, 13 мар. 2022 г. в 01:37, Kevin Pease Tennis Professional <kpsotennis@gmail.com>: 3/13/22 Thank you for the update. I’m glad your are not in the middle of this war. Can they make you fight? 3/14/22 All my friends that had army courses in university and went to military registration office after some sort courses going to fight. All of my friends who wanted to fight and has experience - already there. So the situation for now is like nobody catch you on a street but if you come to the office you will probably go fighting and 100% will go fighting if you was in army or had courses in University. Now it seems that This war will last for a long time... Can't believe вс, 13 мар. 2022 г., 22:33 Kevin Pease Tennis Professional <kpsotennis@gmail.com>: 3/17/22 Saint Patrick’s Day Can you get out of the Ukraine?Your country cannot keep up with this invasion over time. 318/22 No, can't leave the country, and know when I'll be able to do it.As I hear all the information we are going to win in this war. The coloumm movement not effective, javelin destroys it very easy, from 113 shots from javelin 100 are in the aim, this is a record of javelin usage. Last days we got stinger, so now on low altitube we destroy many airplanes. New help from USA provides us with higher alritude anti airplane systems. Russia is running out from airplanes. And that's it, So 2-3 weeks and they will need to go away from the Ukraine. That what analytics said, and it looks like true. But that's what it should be only if putin won't do any dirty thing. We are very afraid of nuclear bomb, and many people who feel putin said that this is a question of time, strikes will go on USA also. So maybe, its better for you to go on vacation to Australia for some time, but I hope that some people won't let him do it. I hope it won't happen. 3/18/22 Oleksii, I’m glad that you still are okay. Your assessment is lucid, quite logical. I pray for the world. Some day we will meet when this is over. I’ll stay in contact with you. 3/18/22 Thank you, Kevin! Can't wait when it's going to be over and we will be able to travel all over the world. One day we will meet for sure. пт, 18 мар. 2022 г., 08:10 Kevin Pease Tennis Professional <kpsotennis@gmail.com>: Note: I’ll keep you updated here at KPST. |
