Skylar Forrest '19 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing soccer for eleven years and ever since I played my first game it's become my passion. My goal is to find a University that will help me obtain a degree in health sciences and challenge me on the soccer field. On and off the field I plan to continue being a leader on my team through my work ethic and determination as I strive to be the best player I can be.

My strengths of having a great first touch, my full field vision and precision with distribution of the ball all help me overall when playing a possession game.I take pride in my movement off the ball whether supporting or making supporting runs, knowing that most of the game is spent without the ball.Finally my greatest asset is my coach-ability. I deliver what my coaches ask of me and I love to ask my coaches questions to improve my understanding of the game.

I'm a team player who motivates and challenges my teammates to become better players during practices and games. Off the field, I'm a very hard working person and I'm willing to make sacrifices to achieve my goals on and off the field. I'm a very respectful, kind hearted individual who loves to get involved in the community whether I'm working at local OHL hockey games, babysitting, volunteering at soccer camps or reffing games. I love to share my passion for the game.

I  played centre midfield for the Michigan Hawks ECNL team and I am currently a freshman red shirt at UIC in the transfer portal.
