Personal Statement
Tennis is more than a sport, it's my life. Hello, my name is Rebecca Rhodes. I started playing tennis in 6th grade but got cut from the middle school team, but I knew I wanted more. I started doing tennis clinics multiple times a week, constantly improving my skills. The next year I made the team playing mid-JV, but I loved it. Playing tennis and the comradery of my team was amazing. I have continued these clinics year-round since my 6th grade year and placed one varsity singles for my 8th grade year. Freshman year I enjoyed playing varsity and I'm looking forward to a future in tennis. When I'm not at clinics, practices or private lessons, I can be found on the tennis court, practicing solo or with anyone willing to join me. The tennis court is my happy place, and I will be playing for the rest of my life.
