My name is Ebaa Al-shimmary, and I'm 20 years old with a strong passion for sports and an active lifestyle. Ever since I was young, I’ve found energy and joy in physical activity. I’ve developed strong interests in soccer and running. I also have an interest in tennis, and I’m excited about the opportunity to work in a tennis environment where I can explore that passion further. Being around the sport, learning more about it, and gaining hands-on experience is something I truly look forward to. Sports have taught me discipline, resilience, and the value of teamwork. Outside of athletics, I’m always open to new experiences and enjoy pushing myself to grow in different aspects of life.
