Write an Essay...Win a Tennis Racket!


The SAP Open Kids Day Committee along with USTA is sponsoring an essay contest.

See the guidelines below:

ESSAY CONTEST

Twelve (12) lucky students will be chosen to win a Yonex Tennis racquet and other prizes, which will be awarded during the event. These students will also be invited to arrive early and participate in tennis drills with the pros as part of the event. Essays are limited to one page and should be based on one of the topics listed below:

1. Why is living a healthy lifestyle important, and how does tennis play a role in it?
2. Why is sportsmanship important in the sport of tennis?
3. A tennis player you admire and why?

Since the deadline for all essays is Friday, January 25, 2013, I will need to read and select the two (2) best essays no later than Wednesday, January 23, 2013. They will then be mailed to the SAP Open Kids Day headquarters. If someone is chosen, they will notify me and the honoree will be celebrated during the SAP Open Kids Day event on Friday, February 15.

One student from my class won a Yonex Tennis racquet two years ago, so it is possible!

GOOD LUCK!
