10th Grade ยท Tennis ยท Scouts

Hi, I'm Sanjeeva Manimuthu.

I'm a high school sophomore who spends most of my time on the tennis court, on the trail with my Scout troop, and playing with my little brother.

About me

I'm in 10th grade and I like staying busy. Tennis keeps me competitive, Scouts teaches me leadership and outdoor skills, and my family keeps me grounded.

Sophomore in high school, balancing classes with sports and service.

Competitive tennis player training to keep raising my Universal Tennis Rating.

Earning merit badges, leading in my troop, and working toward the Life rank.

Tennis

Universal Tennis Rating
5.7

UTR rates players of every age and level on a single scale based on real match results.

116.5

What I love about the game

Tennis is one-on-one. You have to solve problems in the middle of a point, stay calm after a mistake, and keep going. I train to get more consistent, build a stronger serve, and compete in more matches.

Goals: keep raising my UTR, play more tournaments, and keep enjoying the game.

Working toward Life

Earning Life means completing more merit badges, serving in a troop leadership role, doing service hours, and showing Scout spirit. After Life, my next goal is Eagle Scout.

My brother

Nidhulan Manimuthu

My younger brother and my favorite person to hang out with. Whether we're hitting balls, exploring new places, or goofing around at home, some of my best times are with Nidhulan.
