Personal Statement

I love football.  I love playing football, and I love all the dynamics of the sport.  From a very early age, football has influenced my life. As a result, I am disciplined, flexible, and a team player.  I am a disciplined individual. At every football game, I try my best to help my teammates succeed on the field. I do that by being prepared for each game. I respect my coaches and I try to incorporate their suggestions in order to help our team improve. Most often that means following the team rules, showing up on time for meetings and being ready for practices and weight training.  I am also a very flexible player.  I believe to improve as a player you must be willing to analyze your play.  You need to listen to those who know more and make the necessary changes.  I reach out to my coaches regularly and I watch not only our game film, but film from other teams, so I can prepare for the competition.  The more I know about the competition the better I can adjust as a player on the field.  I’m always looking for ways to elevate my play.  Playing football has given me the opportunity to serve others. I am a team player.  There are no best or worst players on a football team. One player cannot win and one player cannot lose. Football is a team effort and each member needs to do his part. You get out of life what you put into it. I give one hundred percent in everything that I do, and I will continue to work hard to make it to the next level.
