Personal Statement
Dear Coaches,
My name is Nina, I'm a 17-year-old passionate soccer player from Brazil. This is my last year in high school and my objective is to play abroad for a university team and eventually achieve a professional level. Despite my dedication to the sport, I continue to maintain good academic results, balancing my focus on both.
I believe that my determination, dedication, and willingness to always do my best make me a good candidate. I always put a lot of work into training and with that and my determination I achieved the honor of being captain of my team, and for that, I did not let my mistakes get in my way of playing. I tend to get very concentrated on the pitch, while in the breaks I socialize with the teammates.
Thankfully, I have my family's support. They have helped me build a team for physical and mental follow-up to ensure that I can achieve my dream of becoming a professional soccer player.
I also prioritize different types of training so that I can acquire technical proficiency and strategies. As a student-athlete, it is very important to be able to balance both. I have been building two different bases in high school, the regular one in Brazil and a 3-year program with online classes and numerous projects to earn a high school graduate certificate, accepted in several countries.
Thank you for considering my application and I look forward to the possibility of being recruited by you.
Kind regards,
Nina
