Personal Statement
I played many sports when I was younger, but in the end baseball was the most enjoyable. Hitting has always been my favourite, especially when I hit the ball hard. I’ve been fortunate to win many tournaments, club and state titles, and even compete in a national championship. My next challenge is to pursue an opportunity overseas.
In terms of personal development, I feel that I grew the most after being benched in a championship match. The regret and frustration I felt made me realise that I was not good enough yet. Following that game, I had time to think and reflect. I’ve re-established my goals and committed myself to baseball a lot more. In doing so, I have regained confidence, gained leadership skills and have learned the value of mental strength.
I am looking for a program that can help me get to and flourish at a higher level. I know that I have the talent and mindset to compete in college baseball and believe I can bring a range of skills and attributes that will also benefit those around me.
