Help Jim to turn tennis pro

Hey

Let me tell you my story as a young rising tennis athlete.

It all started three years ago. The first time I set foot on a tennis court it felt like I was flying over court. Confidence and determination had flown through my veins ever since. I did not just want to become the best, I knew I would. However, I also knew I would have a though road ahead. The tennis world is a highly competitive and expensive place and as my parents are both social care workers this creates great obstacles. In the last three years I was able to rise to the top 30 of The Netherlands’ leaderboard, but due to my current training I won’t be able to climb any further. Last week I got scouted by one of the best trainers in the Netherlands. This trainer and I are both determined to take me to the top and train me to become The Netherlands’ next fresh tennis talent. Unfortunately my family and I don’t have enough money to afford my biggest dream, especially not after the divorce of my parents. This type of professional and intense training costs 40.000 euros a year. So if you are interested in helping a young tennis player to reach his biggest dream, please don’t hesitate to donate! Thank you very much in advance and you will see my as soon as possible at Roland Garros.
