Personal Statement

I became interested in soccer when I was eight years old, my mom and dad signed me up, and I never looked back.  Soccer has been one of the most important influences in my life.  Through soccer, I have learned the necessity of hard work and determination, which is crucial for success in soccer and life. 

Academically, I would like to continue my quest for being an honor student in high school.  From there, I want to go to college and study business management, eventually owning a luxury car dealership.  I would love to play in college because it would give me the experience that I require to grow as a person and a player.  College is a massive part of a person's development and I am very dedicated to my goals, leading me to overcome some obstacles.  For instance, dedication to several hours of skill, strength and conditioning training, while focusing on school.  A student-athlete can't only focus on a sport(s) but must find time for overall development.  Being a boy scout has helped me with focus, allowing me to understand the importance of teamwork and leadership. 

Other than determination and leadership, I think I have a unique ability as a team player.   I like being a part of a team and bring my skill set for the betterment of the team.  I'm also good at communicating and following directions, as seen in being a scout as well as in soccer.  I am very coachable, in that I'm obligated to the coach and system in place.  I understand that coaches are there to develop the individual and team successes.  My characteristics include my dedication to physical and mental strength.  I am a controlled/unselfish player that is looking to make that right play for myself and teammates.  My skills are a part of the team setting, something that I have learned from playing soccer, boy scouts and participating in school activities.  To my team, I will bring 150 percent of dedication/determination and the will to win!
