Personal Statement

I’ve been playing soccer since I was five years old. My preschool teacher actually told my parents that they should expose me to soccer because she thought it would be good for me based on how my brain worked. My parents took my preschool teacher’s advice. I joined a little league team and loved it, so I continued to play and it became a passion.  

I’ve learned a lot about myself as a person through playing soccer. I’m a very driven person. I’m a hard worker, both on and off the field. On the field, I’m coachable and I always give it my all. Off the field, I’m a great student and maintain a high GPA. I’m a diligent worker, and I have good time management skills. I truly believe that hard work pays off. 

My academic aspirations for high school are to maintain good grades, so I have as many doors open as possible for college options. I hope to attend a college that fits me best academically and athletically. Additionally, I hope to pursue a degree I have a true passion for. I hope to become a great role model for all my peers and make my parents proud.
