Olivia joined us when she was 16 and has since finished her A levels living with a host family, moved to the USA to study and play tennis on a scholarship, stayed in the USA for an additional year of tennis but without the support from her college and is now off to Loughborough university to do an MSc in Sports Physiology and continue to play tennis at the very top level.  This journey demonstrates that taking a few risks and making big decisions often pay off in the long term. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed chatting with Olivia.
