The older girls would chase balls while the youngest were put through their paces. Before their daily sessions, the sisters would sweep the courts of broken glass and drug paraphernalia. There was grass growing in the cracks of the ashphalt and the chain nets were rusted, but this was the proving ground of two future champions.
