OVERALL ABILITY ON THE FIELD:

My overall ability on the tennis court is to maintain, or at least try to maintain one more ball in play then my opponent. I consider my game to be control over power, and most importantly consistency.  Mind control is another key to becoming a good player, but I try to use it on my favor rather than against.

STRENGTHS ON THE FIELD:

I’d have to say my serve in general is the best strength I have on my favor. My first serve is pretty affective while my second never fails.

Another good shot I have is my one handed backhand even though; mentally wise it’s as good as my forehand, the only difference is I’d would prefer getting pounded on my backhand because it would follow with a good slice.

WEAKNESSES ON THE FIELD:

My weakness would have to be my volleys. Not the technique, but the mental confidence I have with myself. I would prefer to stay on the base line and win a point with one of my strokes than to go up the net. Another shot that does need improvement would be my drop, but also I still need improvement on all my shots to be at a great competitive level.

HOBBIES AND PERSONAL INTEREST:

On my spare time I enjoy playing other sports in general, and when I’m not doing sports I enjoy playing drums (drummer) playing with some friends having like a recreation band is quite entertaining. I enjoy going to the beach most of the time along with long boarding.  Lastly, I love listening to music, but if I were to choose a genre it would be electronic.

DESCRIBE YOUR SELF AS A PERSON:

I’m a very genuine person I care about people in general. I’m positive, and whenever there’s something going wrong I normally try to look at the bright side rather than stay negative. I get along with mostly everyone, quite outgoing you can say. I don’t focus on pointless things that won’t get me anywhere within my goals.

I enjoy meeting new people. When someone gives me advice or tips I hold on to them. I’m really passionate when it coming down to things I like to do, and I always think ahead rather then get stuck on the past.
