Mount Saint Charles Varsity Tennis

Congratulations to this week’s Showcase Cinemas High School Team of the Week: Mount Saint Charles Academy Girls Varsity Tennis!

From player Sonia Radu:

The MSC Girls’ Varsity Tennis participates in a food donation program founded last year by a Mount senior named Trisha Bhatia, who created the organization ‘Pass the Plate’.

Before every match, the captains email the coaches of the opponent teams about ‘Pass the Plate’ and its community-oriented goal. We ask the other teams’ coaches to ask their players to bring in canned goods when they come to our courts for matches if they would like to participate in ‘Pass the Plate’. At the end of the season, the Mount St. Charles team will donate all the canned goods collected to the Rhode Island Food Bank in the name of Rhode Island Girls’ Tennis.

The success of our program is very inspiring because even on our first match of the season, absolutely all the players from the opposing team brought a canned good each. We were flattered to see players who came from towns that were considerably far away from Mount, but still brought in their canned goods.

We believe that little by little, match by match, we can make a difference in other people’s lives and we mix our passion for tennis with our community service-oriented nature to enlighten the lives of others who may not be as fortunate as we are.
