WATERPOLO VIDEO 1Personal Statement
WHO AM I?
I am a fast player who is up on the counter frequently. I also go for the sprint in my team. The role I have in my team is as the playmaker, because I have great awareness, so I know where the ball needs to go and where the ball is always. I am not as much of a scorer as a great team player, giving plenty of assists per game. I am also a leader inside and outside the water, celebrating when we win and cheering up during the difficult moments. To sum up, I consider myself a very complete player in whom you can trust in the clutch moments.
ATHELETE PHILOSOPHY
“The medals are obtained in training; in the matches they will be collected”. Be respectful with my teammates while I try to achieve my goal, the perfection. The only way to succeed is trying to be better every day. No matter the rival, I will always give my 100%; we have no time to waste. I hate losing because of that I do not give anything for lost no matter how bad the situation goes. Lastly, every mistake is a lesson that helps me grow because “our best successes often come from our greatest disappointments”.
