Dear Wmts Members,

What a strange year 2020 has been. I do hope you and your family have survived this pandemic and are in line for vaccinations. I have just been informed that Turkey has set new dates for our 2021 meeting. The dates are October 9-15, 2021. Please save those dates and check out their website for all the information. Antalya looks amazing. Hopefully international travel will once again be feasible.

Egils Valeinis, the executive secretary was hoping to have a list of all of the potential attendees to this next meeting in hopes of starting a database with emails, cellphones, specialty, etc. This would make for easier communication. Perhaps the PRESIDENTS OF EACH COUNTRY could organize such a list and share it with Dr. Egils Valeinis. Better communication makes for better tournaments as we all know.

Other good news, we have recently been in communications with the newly formed Indian Medical tennis society. The founder, Dr. Swanit Deshpande has heard about our organization and is excited to join us at our next meeting. He is also using social media to promote our organization. His enthusiasm is welcomed and so hopefully we will see a new country added to our world meeting in 2021.

Please feel free to email myself, Bonnie Sidoff at sidoffb@gmail.com or text me at 503-351-0904 with any questions or concerns. As you all know, The American Medical tennis society will host the 2022 meeting at Orlando. Hopefully, we will have this pandemic behind us completely by that time.

Reminder, stay well, stay active and keep playing tennis, Share with your tennis friends and colleagues the benefits of our organization as it is important to keep our organization growing.

Yours respectfully,   Bonnie Sidoff
