Personal Statement
Hi coach! I am a very ambitious and disciplined person, which can especially be seen in my tennis and my academics. In tennis, playing competitions since the age of 7 and club team games since the age of 9 allowed me to become a very experienced, confident, calm, clever and strategic player who can handle stress and pressure well and win in close situations. These qualities even helped me to win matches against stronger opponents. Because of my familiy's financial situation (single mother, four children) I couldn’t always participate in all the competitions I wanted (especially ITF's) or afford all the tennis training I wanted. However, me and my twin sister Anna didn't use that as an excuse but rather as a motivation to push ourselves even harder (also in school), so we train a lot by matching with each other. Because of that, I am very grateful for every tip a coach can give me, which makes me a very coachable person. I train tennis every day ( except rest day) for 2-3 hours and try to play club team games or competitions nearly every weekend, because I have very high ambitions.
I'm also extremely fit, because I do lots of sports in my free time and keep attention to fitness training and nutrition. Doing so much sport, I am also a very fair and respectful athlete.
Additionally, playing club team games allowed me to become a good and active team player who loves to interact and make new friendships with others. During these club team games my twin sister and me also learned to play very good doubles together and beat opponents stronger than ourselves, because we know each other's game and how to play out our strengths.
