COACH'S QUOTE – "Hard work and dedication to the game are the best words I can find to describe Amina and her success. She obviously has God-given ability, but Amina is on the tennis court 365 days a year, and has worked extremely hard for everything she has achieved."
— Sarah Hennessey, Tennis Coach
