To listen to this week’s episode:
My guests this week include Cindy Brinker – daughter of Little Mo herself, Maureen Connolly Brinker – Carol Weyman who runs the Little Mo tournaments, and Gerry, Gael, and Matias Moran who started the Little Mo Club during the COVID shutdown last year.
You will hear both Cindy and Carol talk about the WHY behind Little Mo and the logistics of the tournaments. In addition, you’ll hear from the Morans about the need to create a virtual community for young players to stay in touch during the pandemic and how they have teamed with Little Mo to make that happen. Matias is a former Little Mo participant himself, and, at age 14, knows the value these experiences have brought to his life both on and off the tennis court.
As Matias mentions in the pod, he interviewed me for the Little Mo Club website, You can watch that interview here:
