RECOMMENDATION LETTER :GWINYAI TONGOONA

(Zimbabwe Davis Cup Coach)

As the Davis Cup captain/coach for Zimbabwe and coach of top juniors in Zimbabwe, I am very

happy to recommend Kimberley Kaome for your tennis program. I have watched Kimberley

over the last couple of years and seen her development as a person and a top junior player in

Zimbabwe. She is very hard working and has done very well both in school and tennis. Around

the courts she is a leader and sets a good example for the other players with a high work rate

and discipline.

The time I have spent with Kimberley on the court has been good and she has achieved most of

the goals we had set and really improved her level of play. Her work ethic and commitment to

work hard every day has been valuable to our tennis program as it had a positive effect on the

rest of the players in the program. She worked hard this year and was very competitive in the

ITF junior tournaments played in Zimbabwe and Botswana earlier this year.

Having worked with other players who have gone to college and excelled who include Guy Orly,

Iradukunda, Mbonisi Ndimande, Benjamin and Courtney Lock, Admire Mushonga among

others. I have no doubt that Kim will be an asset to any program that she will join. If you would

like to speak further with me about my experience working with Kim please email me on

[email protected] or call me on +263785195347.

Yours sincerely

Gwinyai Tongoona (Davis Cup captain/coach)
