2017 HighlightsPersonal Statement
Since I can remember I have always had a ball at my feet. At a young age I watched and learned from icons in the English premier league. To this day I am still constantly trying to learn from the best players in the world while training with the best possible teams that I can.
I believe I am a good asset to any team because my number one goal is to play the hardest I can play, support my teammates success and have fun playing the game.
Along with soccer, I also take my schooling very seriously. In my school work I always strive for the best marks I can get. I am in AP courses and I am maintaining honours. I juggle this with 4 on field practices and 2 strength training sessions a week along with games. Time management is a skill I am currently perfecting. My favourite subjects in school are the sciences. Saying that, I plan on going to University to become someone who helps people and although I’m not 100 percent sure yet, I believe I will probably end up in the medical field.
As a person I am high spirited and have many great friends from and outside of soccer. With the support of my family, I have grown up travelling for soccer and love every bit of it. I believe that I would make a great addition to any team looking for an attacking player who is also a great team player and an exceptional student.
