Personal Statement

My name is Zach Boot. I am an eighteen-year-old 2020 DB/WR at IMG Academy down in Bradenton, Florida. I am originally from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, but have just recently made the transition down south this semester. I will be finishing off the school year at IMG, and completing my high school football career playing for the Ascenders next fall. As of right now, I will be playing defensive back next season, but I also have the ability to play wide receiver if the opportunity presents itself. Back home, I was a multi-sport athlete who competed at football, soccer, basketball, and track and field for my high school, but football being my true passion, I've decided to transfer to IMG and solely focus on my future playing this sport. Alongside athletics, I am a consistent honour-roll student who works hard on and off the field, and I take pride in success not only playing football, but also in the classroom. My 2017 highlight video showcases my defensive ability alone, whereas my 2018 highlight video showcases my ability to play on both sides of the ball. I hope this short statement has helped you take a closer look at who I am. Thanks for your time.
