Personal Statement
My goal in basketball is to become pro and not only that is also to be recognised by others I not only want to be recognised and become pro, I also want to influence other people to push themselves to their limits and face the challenges that come across them and to see how difficulty that other people had to go through to get to where they are in life, such as NBA players they didn't just get drafted because how good they were it's because they worked hard for it, they practiced everyday consistently to get to where they are now. NBA players practice and work hard to get better and better and achieve that mvp trophy or to get that championship ring etc, all I'm saying is that not only do I want to play basketball to become pro and play in high colleges and be able to play in the NBA but also to influence other people who play basketball to push themselves to their limits and face those challenges to accomplish that dream of theirs of being a college basketball player or a NBA player.
My name is Benjamin Blackley and I've been playing basketball since I was 8. Before I started to really play basketball during school I would go hang with my mates every recess and lunch we would go to the basketball courts and play 2v2, couple months go by and my friend tells me that I should come join his team and all I had to do was come training also have my name signed up for that team, so that's what I did and ever since then we played on the the same team with each other,now lets fast forward to today we no longer play with each other now because our team went separate ways.
