Intro:

Tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams cut the ribbon on the Williams Arena in Washington, D.C., America.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English): Venus Williams:

"But yes, Serena and I are excited to, so many years later see the centre thriving and to see so many successes here and if anyone has been here to see the programs that are run and the enthusiasm, the positivity, and the discipline that are instilled in the children here and the can do attitude it would be something that you have to see and to just tell you about it, it wouldn't be powerful enough, so if you can come back other than today to witness that you'll be more than impressed and thank you for being here because it helps us to get this out here about the SELTC and what it's doing and for your support."

SOUNDBITE (English): Venus and Serena Williams:

Serena: "Well my greatest hope is you know, not necessarily going out there and thinking I have to be better than anyone in the world, I have to be the best because for me, tennis can open up so many doors but also just making sure that you have a great education and to think you know what you're doing so no one takes advantage of you so, not only being the greatest athlete or the greatest tennis player or the greatest, whatever you want to be but also having a very, very intelligent mind, it goes really far."
