Personal Statement
As a sportsperson I am always looking to keep developing and trying to achieve new goals I set out for myself. At the moment my current goal is trying to gain a scholarship to help me go to America where I can develop my basketball skills while still in education. I believe that I am a very good candidate as I am a very hard worker and I strive to improve and be the best at what I do. I am also very competitive which I feel helps me while I am performing to make me and my teammates reach the best of our potential. Within in basketball so far I have achieved a lot. I have always been heavily into my sports, when I started playing basketball at the age of 13 I fell in love with the game instantly. This led me on to play National league basketball from U14, U16s, and U18s all the way up to division 2 Women’s National League Basketball (currently). At the age of 15 I played in the South of England basketball team where I feel it really helped me grow as a player. The past 3 years I have spent my time at Itchen College (16-19 High School) competing in the U18 Premier League and the U19 Women’s Elite Academy Basketball League where I am currently captain of the team. Academically I spent 2 years studying BTEC sport level 3 diploma, where I achieved a triple distinction star. I currently study personal training and sports massage with upcoming exams.
