Personal Statement

My name is Elijah Hamm I am in the class of 2027 from IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida.  My love for the game of football started when I was only 2 years old and I began playing tackle football at age 5 in San Antonio, Texas.  Since that time I have learned to love the game even more and can't wait to see what the future holds for me.  I am a hard worker who gives everything I have on every single play.  I never give up and I'm always striving to be the best I can be.  Although I love football, It isn't my only passion.  My parents have taught me the importance of a good education and I am constantly working to be the best student I can be, although not always perfect, I am always giving it my all.  My goals are to find the right educational and athletic experience that will help me be the best student, athlete and person that I can be.  The thing that defines me more than anything else is:  "I want it more than the next guy, so I will work harder than anyone else to get where I need to be"
