Personal Statement

• Hi, my name is Sean Bradley Jr. I am an honor roll student-athlete at Fuqua High School in Farmville, VA. I am currently seeking opportunity in furthering my education and playing football on the highest level.  My preparation for getting to this point in life is driven and pushed by me watching both of my parents walk across the stage at their college graduation; which was a motivation for me. This opened my eyes to the rigorous scheduling and obstacles that life brings. It has prepared me not only to excel on and off the field, but allow me to emulate hectic scheduling filled with a.m. home workouts, school, team workouts, and various volunteer work.  In addition, I am also the President of the Junior Usher Board program at my church and I have a part-time job, to help my parents pay for football camps/training. I have been working a tight schedule like this for 3 years now.

By the end of my Senior year, I will have a high school diploma and Associates degree. Obtaining this goal will allow me to be flexible with my professors, coaching staff, and adhere to the strict schedule of college. This will allow me to dedicate time for my workouts, obtaining a Bachelor degree in Business, search for additional opportunities and set higher goals from there.

I am diverse and thrive in many different school settings from public to military and Christian private schools. I am excelling academically and as an athlete. I am performing at high levels as a 3-sport athlete; from football to wrestling and in shot-put for track.

Football is my passion, and I have been playing since I was 5 years old for various local metropolitan youth football leagues (www.metrofootball.org) As a middle linebacker and full- back because of my strength, I have been able to be versatile by playing on the offensive and defensive line. 

Whether it is academics, football, shot-put or wrestling, I always strive to be 110% in whatever I do. My strengths are integrity, having compassion in all the things I do, competitiveness, motivation, respect and I also take accountability for my actions, this is what has helped me to be successful and shaped me into the man I am becoming and who I am today.

In conclusion, I will be a great candidate for your school because my background shows stability and my ability to adapt and learn, listen and apply detailed information given to me by my superiors. I am open and ready for what challenges and opportunities my college career possess. Thank you for your time and attention. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Teamwork makes the dream work and I am ready. Let's get it!
