Personal Statement
I have been playing soccer since I was five years old. Ever since I first kicked a ball around the pitch, I have always wanted to play soccer on a higher level. I know that playing in college is a once in a lifetime opportunity that could change my life.
I currently play for BALLISTIC UNITED SC BUSC PREMIER 99 coached by Jerry Losson. I can play either center back, left back, left mid, and center mid. I have exceptional ball handling skills, and a high soccer IQ. I am very coachable and willing to learn in order to make an immediate impact, as well as further develop my skills and strengths. As a hard worker I strive to be one of the hardest working players on the team. I am a team leader and try to lead by example while also encouraging my teammates.
In the classroom, I study hard to maintain a high GPA above 3.5. In addition, I volunteer at local youth soccer camps and leagues.
I want to attend a college where I can push myself both in the classroom and on the field. Ultimately, I want to find the right school to match my ambitions of playing at the highest level of competition possible. I hope to become a great role model to my peers and make my parents and family proud.
