This one goes to those who hit snooze, thought about staying in bed, yet walked out the door regardless. To everyone discovering the biggest hurdle sits right at the start. Chasing shuttles becomes a reason, slowly uncovering shared grins during rallies, quiet support after rough matches, benches filling up at the local spot week by week. Not obsessed, just present. Time slips fast. Move. Connect. Return.

The folks behind Dropshot Folks.
By profession she's an actress and model, but by passion she loves sports that's the reason she started Dropshot Folks. She believes in fairness, women empowerment, and is a bit crazy because she is loud, fun and a bit dramatic. One thing about her — you will enjoy with her.
