=Forum Backups=

The tennis community has had many forum sites they have called home over the years. Going through these forum archives is very useful when exploring tennis history or researching various topics.

==YouChew==

A good chunk of [[YouChew]] exists on archive.org. Local complete archives of the website exist, however an online archive exists in a browsable state [https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/index here]. Browsing the site is somewhat finicky, however; make sure to remove any ".html" in URLs or it will redirect to a 404 page.

The second, short-lived revival of YouChew was ''not'' archived. Few pages exist on archive.org, however they are hard to access.

==YTPMania==

[[YTPMania]] still stands to this day in read-only form.

==Pinchbacks==

Both the short-lived forum and discord server for [[Pinchbacks]] were not archived. Most notably this means the loss of much of the forum activity for the [[Doubles Cup 4]], however not much else was done there tennis-wise.

==YellowTealPurple==

[[YellowTealPurple]] is the current home for video tennis discussion. Archives are not needed at this time, but proactive webmasters very likely will have backups available if the site goes down.
