A new year!

Hi guys! I'm back!

I haven't written for a long time. I've been doing a lot more tennis and I'm learning to serve! Ok, well, scratch that. I'm just learning the basics. Anyway there's a lot more going on. It's summer now so I'll be spending more time with my mum (I can't wait to see what fitness activities she has up her sleeve), my dad (the main tennis coach), my brother (very encouraging and kind hearted) and my sister (already started tournaments).

Fitness. A boost to finding your way through the journey of tennis! My mum takes care of that! She's always trying to come up with some great, fun activities that will truly help us. I sometimes find tennis tricky but I'm always keen to keep on going.

Now here's a funny story. I was at the tennis courts with my dad and my sister and I was chatting for a while when my dad said, "Everyday you will improve this much" and he held up his fingers with only a centimeter gap between his fingers. And I replied "But throughout our journey, we'll improve this much!" And I held my hands out wide. And that's what I think is right. Now, I keep that memory in my head every time I go to the tennis courts. 

My sister has been doing a lot of tournaments. She tries as hard as she can, using the right techniques to try and win these tournaments. And she plays against some of the hardest players but no matter what happens in those tournaments, I know she'll do great.

Finally, My sweet little brother. He is an encouraging little boy who works hard with his tennis moves and he is kind to others on the tennis court. It is incredible to see him playing and enjoying tennis at his age (7 nearly 8).

 

It's getting late now but I'll see you next time.

Bye!
