2015 Orange Bowl Championships and Training Costs

Aim

I am looking for support to help send me to the Orange Bowl Championships in Florida and towards my training costs in 2015.

I am looking for support to help send me to the Orange Bowl Championships and towards my training costs in 2015.

The Orange Bowl is the unofficial Junior World Championship and its previous winners and entrants include players such as Andy Murray, Maria Sharapova, Martin Del Potro and Novak Djokovic.

My aim is to compete in the 12 and under girls event at this years Orange Bowl and also to compete and train throughout the country and in Europe during 2015.

In order to compete in Florida, Great Britain and Europe and to continue to increase my training programme to the level required to reach my ultimate goal of becoming a professional tennis player on the WTA tour I need support to help with my travelling and training costs. Tennis is a very expensive sport and now the LTA are making it even more difficult for young players by cutting back on the funding that has been available in the past.

Here is a breakdown of my expected costs this year -

• UK Event - £250 x 20 events
• Coaching and Training Costs - £10,000
• European Events - £600 x 2
• Orange Bowl - Travelling, Accomodation and Entry Fees - £3000

I really hope you can help support me during 2015 with my ultimate dream of competing in the Orange Bowl in Florida.
