Personal Statement
I have been playing soccer since I was 4 years old. I am hard-working, dedicated and focused. I would love to play college soccer after I graduate, and am willing to do what it takes to get me there. I play my best game against the toughest teams and thrive on the challenge of winning. I understand team bonding is essential for a strong team as it builds trust and opens up communication which clearly follows through to the field. I have been told I am a natural leader and have fully accepted and enjoy this responsibility. I have an extreme sense of being able to read my opponents and take full advantage of any miscommunication. The same goes on offense with knowing my teammates so well that I can anticipate the next play to be a step ahead.
I am ranked #1 out of 223 students in my class due to years of determination and hard work and very late nights after soccer! I have been taking CIS, AP and Honors classes for two years so my classes are tough. All of the personal characteristics it takes to maintain my #1 ranking also make me a better soccer player. I never give less than 100% in ANYTHING I do.
I am looking for a college with a high academic standard to get me the degree I need to start my career, but with the opportunity to play soccer which is my passion.
