Personal Statement
Hi my name is Khayre and I am from Birmingham, England. I have loved the game of basketball since I was a child and I have had a lifelong dream of pursuing basketball as a profession to support me and my family. I am currently 16 years old, and I go to St Edmund Campion Catholic School and while I acknowledge that my school isn't a basketball-oriented school, I feel that I do enough basketball outside of school to compensate. I do play the occasional game for my school and when I do I play very well, though I feel that this is not enough, and I have joined a club for this upcoming season. I feel that I should be considered by NCAA teams due to my commitment, love for the game and the hard work that I put in daily just for a chance to compete at the level I have dreamed of. I've have had many setbacks in the past including Injury and getting diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes but despite these setbacks I have continued to play basketball due to my love of the game. I feel that the next two seasons can prove to be the most crucial if I treat them correctly (which I will). I plan to start a basketball team in my school to extend my development and I plan to play for a club team to gain exposure. I feel that by the end of those two years I will be ready to continue on to a D1 school. Thanks for reading and I hope to attend your school soon.
