I decided that apart from stimulating the youngsters academically, I should also get them involved in a sport which has helped me shape my skills and thought process significantly. Being a tennis player, I know the benefits of this sport gives both physically and mentally!
Having a younger brother who is just as interested as me (if not more!) is a definite advantage.
Our attempt to go around to collect used tennis racquets was pretty successful and I am thankful to all those who were kind enough to donate. I then contacted our family friend Dr. Bharani (Barani aunty) to find a local coach who will work along with me in my efforts.
While the coach will work with the children on a regular basis, we will also be sending some training videos that we create and maintaing phone contact.
I cannot wait until this summer when I can interact with all the children and hold a tennis clinic!
