My name is Artemis, i just turned 9 years old (30th Nov). My dream is to win Roland Garros and other Grand Slam Tournaments. With the support of my parents and coaches i am I am actually step by step heading to this goal. For girls, the big step is now: “from 9 to 12 years old”: i need to focus on training and getting the best support. This year 2022, i am going to focus on international tournament like Ten-Pro and therefore I need your support to help me financing my travels, accommodations, tennis, physical and mental trainings, coaching…
I have been playing tennis since the age of 5 and have directly shown a particular attraction to the sport and also exceptional skills for my age.
i had had the chance to start training in Tennis Club Géronsart, which was taken over in 2019 by Arthur De Greef, and meet with my fantastic coaches: Gregory D'Annibale Orsi for the tennis and Eric Delchambre for the physical condition. This allowed me to become stronger both mentally and technically.
What Arthur De Greef is telling about me:
“As a former Professional player on the ATP Tour and a member of the Belgian Davis Cup team, I have seen Artemis train many times and I find her potential to be huge.
She is a very aggressive player taking the ball early and can count on great serve.
She has a magnificent technique.
She's athletic and left-handed which is a big advantage, plus she's a very hardworking little girl with a winning character. I think Artemis has all the qualities to become a champion. "
I am also been selected by the Belgian “Association Francophone de Tennis” ( AFT) since September 2020 by the “ HOPE AND SPIRIT” association. This association is great as they take kids to be good not only in tennis but also at school as a tennisman/woman with a brain is smarter.
I enthusiastically train every day so that one day i can fulfill my dream of competing in a Grand Slam tournament.
But to get there, I must now participate in tournaments outside Belgium, which i started in September 2021 by bringing back to Belgium the bronze medal at the Champions Bowl Tournament in Umag in Croatia, even beating the European number 1 in my category after an epic match of 2h45min by 38°.
I also obtained a 12th place out of 36 in a superior category during my first participation in the Ten-Pro of the Kim Clijsters Academy in Belgium and 18th place out of 34 two categories above my own, and for the first time with hard balls and the full court length.
During this tournament I also stood out by receiving the fair play award in front of more than 200 participants.
Other tournaments are planned for 2022, in particular in Dubai, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Serbia, Croatia, etc. of course I will not be able to participate in all of them but ideally in 5 of them in order to be able to improve and discover other games. I need to be able to go there with my coach to train and coach me during the matches and this is where I need everyone's help.

Je m’appelle Artemis, je viens d’avoir 9 ans (30 novembre). Mon rêve est de gagner Roland Garros et d’autres tournois du Grand Chelem . Avec le soutien de mes parents et de mes entraîneurs, je me dirige pas à pas vers cet objectif. Pour les filles, le grand pas est maintenant: « de 9 à 12 ans »: je dois me concentrer sur la formation et obtenir le meilleur soutien. Cette année 2022, je vais me concentrer sur les tournois internationaux comme Ten-Pro et j’ai donc besoin de votre soutien pour m’aider à financer mes déplacements, mon hébergement, mon tennis, mes entraînements physiques et mentaux, mon coaching...
Je joue au tennis depuis l’âge de 5 ans et j’ai directement montré une attirance particulière pour le sport et aussi des compétences exceptionnelles pour mon âge.
J’ai eu la chance de commencer à m’entraîner au Tennis Club Géronsart, qui a été repris en 2019 par Arthur De Greef (ancien n°4 Belge), et de rencontrer des entraîneurs fantastiques: Gregory D’Annibale Orsi pour le tennis et Eric Delchambre pour la condition physique. Cela m’a permis de devenir plus forte mentalement et techniquement.
Ce qu’Arthur De Greef dit de moi :
« En tant qu’ancien joueur professionnel sur le circuit ATP et membre de l’équipe belge de Coupe Davis, j’ai pu voir Artemis s’entraîner à de nombreuses reprises et je trouve son potentiel énorme.
C’est une joueuse qui joue très agressif en prennant la balle tôt et qui peut compter sur un excellent service.
Elle a une technique magnifique.
Elle est athlétique et gauchère, ce qui est un gros avantage, de plus c’est une petite fille très travailleuse et avec un caractère de gagnante. Je pense qu’Artemis possède toutes les qualités pour devenir une championne. "
Je suis également sélectionnée parl’Association Francophone de Tennis (AFT) depuis septembre 2020 et par l’association« HOPE AND SPIRIT». Cette association est géniale car ils prennent les enfants pour être bons non seulement au tennis mais aussi à l’école vu qu’ un joueur/une joueuse de tennis avec une tête bien faite, c’est mieux.
Je m’entraîne tous les jours avec enthousiasme pour qu’un jour je puisse réaliser mon rêve de participer à un tournoi du GrandChelem.
Mais pour y arriver, je dois maintenant participer à des tournois hors Belgique, que j’ai commencé en septembre 2021 en ramenant en Belgique la médaille de bronze au Champions Bowl Tournament à Umag en Croatie, battant même la numéro 1 européenne de ma catégorie après un match épique de 2h45min par 38°.
J’ai également obtenu une 12e place sur 36 dans une catégorie supérieure lors de ma première participation au Ten-Pro de la Kim Clijsters Academy en Belgique et une 18e place sur 34 deux catégories au-dessus de la mienne, et pour la première fois avec des balles dures et sur la totalité du terrain.
Au cours de ce tournoi, je me suis également démarquée en recevant le prix du fair-play devant plus de 200 participants.
D’autres tournois sont prévus pour 2022, notamment à Dubaï, en Finlande, en France, en Géorgie, en Allemagne, en Serbie, en Croatie, etc. Bien sûr je ne pourrai pas participer à tous mais idéalement à 5 d’entre eux afin de pouvoir m’améliorer et découvrir d’autres jeux. J’ai besoin de pouvoir y aller avec mon entraîneur pour m’entraîner et me coacher pendant les matches et c’est pour cela que j’ai besoin de l’aide de tout le monde.
