1-As I approach retirement next year, I’m excited to dedicate more time to our club, bringing fresh perspectives and innovative ideas to help drive membership growth and create a brighter future together.
2-I had the pleasure of serving as a board member in 2022 & 2024 during which time I held the position of Secretary. In this role, I ensured the meticulous recording of Meeting Minutes on a monthly basis.
3-I am eager to volunteer and run for office once again. These are a few notable tournaments I directed and initiatives I undertook during my previous tenure on the board, which only scratch the surface of the many ideas I have for the club’s future growth and development, should I be elected as a board member,
7- I obtained USATT Certified Coach certification to establish my volunteer Monday Night Group Training Class since 2022 for SDTTA members of all ages and skill levels, aiming to enhance their skills and take them to the next level.
8- I proposed implementing online registration for our weekly RR, replacing the previous requirement of registering every Thursday and Sunday night before RR Tournaments. I extend my sincere gratitude to Maurizio for making this initiative a success.
I kindly request your votes and support in my candidacy for a board member position, as I strive to contribute to the improvement of our club. Thank you for your support.
