Personal Statement
Hello!
since I began playing Field Hockey I’ve fallen in love with the sport. So much that I want to play professionally, and hopefully one day in the Olympics. I’m looking for a college that can offer me a place to grow as a player as well as support me towards a career outside my sport.
Character wise I guess you could say I’m optimistic and that I always push a bit harder when things get rough. I’m known for a level head, and on the field for being aggressive, fast, and seeing through plays.
Something that makes me stick out athletically is probably my will to keep going. Instead of lying on the ground and watching the ball go in the net, I push myself off the ground for the second effort, even if it hurts.
It stems off academically as well, because I’m willing to go the extra mile to get my grades as high as I can. My classes aren’t very difficult for me to pass, but I don’t want to settle for “good grades”. I want the best I can do for myself.
