#1 reason why I enjoy officiating…
I was diagnosed at the age of 32 with Rheumatoid Arthritis.  I had played tennis in high school, college and many adult leagues.  When I had to slow down my playing, I still had such a love for tennis that I called Robert Sasseville (whom I had worked on and off for since I was 12 years old) to help me find out the process to get certified as an official.
