Hudson Myatt '21 Recruiting Profile

My name is Hudson Myatt and I am from Halifax, Nova Scotia. I am a 5-7”, 140 lb midfielder. I currently attend a Division 1 high school named Halifax West. Halifax West has won the provincial championship the past 4 of 5 years. This past year has been my second time being a part of this school and this team.

                At the moment I am playing for an academy called Farias Soccer Academy, we compete in the senior men’s division of the MSMSL here in Nova Scotia. At my academy, we practice 15 hours a week not including 2 hour games once and sometimes twice a week. In the academy we work on set plays, attend film sessions, participate in dry land and endurance training, technical sessions and scrimmages. Our film sessions are intended to help us learn from our mistakes and correct them, technical sessions include a variety of different things such as control, passing technique, attacking and defending and many others, the scrimmages is where we put everything we have learned during the course of that week into live game action.

                I believe in hard work and putting all my effort into everything I do, when I step on the field. There is no one on my team or any other team who is going to outwork me. I have great technical skill and vision on the field which you will be able to tell from my highlight video. Some of my greatest skills are in my effort and my technicality, there are not many people I’ve played with whom have a better touch on the ball then I do.

                One of the reasons I love to play soccer so much is because I love to win and running goal line to goal line,   walking off the field, dead tired,  and knowing I left every piece of me I could on that field. It’s how I know, every time I play, I’m getting one step closer to my goal of becoming a university athlete.

                My biggest academic goal for high school is to raise my GPA to a 3.7 by the end of this year. My biggest goal for university is to attempt to get a full scholarship anywhere that provides me with a chance to get a degree in science for my future career as a physiotherapist.

                I feel that there have been many obstacles on my soccer path to this point. A lot of people, over my career,  have told me that I wasn’t good enough to make it to a higher level but I pushed through the adversity and became captain of the majority of my teams, won multiple MVP awards, won provincial championships twice with my club team and with my high school team and traveled to nationals.
