Personal Statement
I have been playing golf ever since I had the physical ability to swing a club. I started playing competitively my 6th grade year and have never regretted it. I started playing up on my high school girl’s varsity golf team in 8th grade and all three years of being on this team, I have qualified for regionals. I have been the lowest scorer for the past 2 years and play year round.
The moment I walked up to my first practice as a shy, little 8th grader I felt at home. My coach and my team mates taught me that it wasn’t always about who has to lowest scores or who wins or loses, it’s about making this experience one you will never forget and focus on growing as a player and a student. Being on this team has been the best part of my high school career so far because I have learned the lessons of teamwork, leadership, confidence, commitment, and respect which I will carry all through my life and at the collegiate level.
I am a team player and also a good student. I am looking for a program that will be a good fit for me both academically and athletically so it will help me grow as a player and a student. I want to be apart of a program that truly values the educational aspects as much as the athletic aspects of being a student- athlete. I know that I have the stamina, the endurance, and the confidence to take on any challenge that lies ahead of me, especially being on a collegiate level team. I know that I have what it takes to be apart of your team.
