A fund raiser Support the Young and Talented will be held in celebration of the success story of a 12 year old Zimbabwean tennis player Michael Mhangami on October 18 at the Norton Rose, Fulbright LLP 3, London Riverside SE1 2RE London from 6pm to 10pm.
Norton Rose Law Firm of London are sponsoring and providing the venue for this unique event which is expected to be attended by 150 guests including sports agents, celebrities and sports stars.
Support the Young & Talented fund raiser will be a night full of entertainment and a celebration of the success story of Michael. And to spice it up there will be Celebs like Rudolph Walker (Patrick) of BBC East Enders rubbing shoulders with guests.
Zimbabwean Glorianne Francis, an inspirational speaker, philanthropist, presenter and host to International events will be presenting this event.
The former Minister of Olympics, Tessa Jowell will be one of the speakers on the day.
The world of tennis has been blessed with a new generation of young players – confident, committed, personality -driven with hopes of leaving their mark on the lawn tennis tournament at Wimbledon London, one of the four Grand Slam championships.
Young Mhangami is already the winner of 9&U and 10&U Aegon Winter Masters Nationals, Clay Court National Championships, Aegon British National Invitational (2 years in a row), Multi Grand Prix winner, LTA Surrey Champion and Porsche Nottingham open Winner twice in a row. LTA funded and identified talented player and above all, the British Number 1 in 2010 and 2011.
This year will see Mhangami compete at one of the biggest tournaments, Orange Bowl, Florida USA.
Mhangami began his tennis career at the age of three and has participated in many local and international tournaments.
He has won awards, medals and trophies.
In 2010 Michael was lucky to have escorted his favourite player and eventual winner, Roger Federer onto court for the match against Andy Murray.
In the same year Michael won three national level titles as well as winning the Surrey County event. He is part of the Aegon Future Stars program to nurture talented young tennis players. Last year Michael was awarded with a very special award, African Achievers Awards (AAA) as the Youngest Achiever.
Michael’s dreams are too big for the earnings of his working class parents. Tennis, unlike any other game out there, is expensive and caters for a limited and very active membership.
Michael travels around the world for tournaments and the more he plays tennis, the more expenses are, for his parents.
A date has been set for a fund raiser that has drawn the attention of tennis legends like Andy Murray & Roger Federer who are expected to take part in this inspiring story of Michael Mhangami.
There will also be live performances by talented singers as well as a Dinner Dance.
Brands, companies and organisations are invited to become sponsors and benefit from networking opportunities the event has to offer.
With this kind of support Michael’s future in tennis looks bright. To you, the generous people out there, please show your support by attending the event or, donate via the provided link.
