Community Participation Grants Series: Tracy Chu’s Journey from Enthusiast on her way to Umpire

As a badminton enthusiast, Tracy Chu embraced the opportunity these grants provided to deepen her involvement in the sport she loves. When she learned that the 2032 Brisbane Olympics would be held in Australia, she saw a new way to contribute to her favorite sport. "I've been playing badminton for years," Tracy says. "Realizing I wouldn't participate as an athlete, I want to be part of the Olympics in another way."

"I love pushing myself further in training to improve my skills and technique," Alphonsa shares. She thrives in high-pressure situations, especially when matches are close and tense. "When the game can go either way, I enjoy creating different strategies to outmaneuver my opponent."
