Many congratulations to Alex Rintoul from Warwickshire, England for signing with the University of Lynchburg in Virginia, beginning his College career in August 2022. Following a very focused 12-month process, during which time Alex worked really hard to develop his tennis while performing well in a challenging course of study at Warwick School, it was thrilling to see Alex achieve the goal he had set for himself to secure a place on an American University tennis team in a great location and on his target degree program. A "I’m so excited about playing tennis every day throughout my University career in Lynchburg," said Alex. "Thanks to Col-Ten and my coaches for helping me to get there. I can’t wait for the all year round weather and the unique experience to come." a Alex's parents, John and Jeanette, were pleased with how the process went for themselves and Alex: "Thank you to Paul and the Col-ten team for running such a smooth process from start to finish. The moment Alex decided he wanted to study and play tennis in the US, we found the experience with them professional and seamless. A number of US University Tennis Coaches expressed an interest in Alex representing them, and with Paul’s help we’re delighted Alex has been offered a place at the University of Lynchburg in Virginia starting in August 2022."
