Anne Krupp Memorial Scholarship
November 21, 2015
The Midwest Youth Tennis & Education Foundation (MYTEF), charitable arm of the USTA/Midwest Section, has announced the establishment of the Anne Krupp Memorial Scholarship. The scholarship is being started in partnership with Anne’s family and many of her friends.
Anne Krupp was a passionate tennis fan and advocate, working as a teaching professional, while putting much of her energy into working with Special Olympics Tennis, Adaptive Tennis, and Wheelchair Tennis programs. Anne was a USTA/Midwest volunteer for 19 years serving in various capacities, and most recently served on the Adaptive Tennis Sub-Committee.
The first $2,500 scholarship will be awarded beginning in the Spring of 2016.
The scholarship will be presented to one or more USTA/Midwest Section tennis players of any age who need additional training or assistance with travel to participate in Adaptive Tennis, Special Olympics, or Wheelchair Tennis, displays excellent sportsmanship on and off the court, and exhibits the true spirit of Anne.
The application for the Anne Krupp Memorial Scholarship will be posted on the MYTEF website at midwesttennisfoundation.com. Individuals interested in donating to this scholarship may contribute online at midwesttennisfoundation.com.
