The Mullaney Tennis Foundation is proud to announce we have awarded our second Tennis Scholarship. The recipient is Gwyneth. Gwyneth is 14 and currently a freshman in school. The scholarship award will help Gwyneth and her family with her training costs.
Gwyneth, 5 yrs. old
Gwyneth began playing tennis when she was 5 years old. She had been participating in soccer, dance, gymnastics, and tennis. She says she had the most fun when playing tennis. So, she decided to make it her main focus. Gwyneth is an A student. Her favorite subject is math but tennis is her passion.
Mia, 12 yrs. old, Gwyneth, 14 yrs. old
Gwyneth came to our Foundation on the recommendation of James Lee, a tennis pro at Northampton Tennis and Fitness Club in Bucks County. Gwyneth and her younger sister, Mia, are competitive tennis players. Gwyneth and Mia enjoy playing together and competing in statewide tournaments.
Currently Gwyneth is ranked 32 in the 14 and Under Middle States (MSTA) ranking. She is ranked 12 in the Philadelphia District.
Gwyneth’s mother, Olga, is a single mom who drives an hour every day to take Gwyneth to train at the Unlimited Tennis Academy in Media. Gwyneth said, “I love my mother very much. She is so supportive.”
With support from her mother, Gwyneth will continue training and competing in USTA tournaments. Gwyneth’s short-term goal is to play on her high school team, then play college tennis. Her long-term goal is to make tennis her career.
With this young lady’s talent, determination, and dedication, we know she will achieve her goals.
