Elsie Hendershot, a young sports talent from Mapleton, Utah, has taken quite a journey. Her story begins as she travels across multiple countries to pursue her passion for pickleball.
Recently, she and her father went through an arduous travel itinerary. Their trip commenced with a drive from Utah to Las Vegas. From there, they took a flight to San Francisco. Unfortunately, they missed a connecting flight, which led them to spend the night in the city.
Continuing their journey, they endured an 11-hour flight across the Pacific Ocean to Japan. Afterward, they boarded another flight, traveling five more hours to reach their destination in Hanoi, Vietnam.
“By the time she landed in Vietnam, Elsie Hendershot figured the hard part was over.”
