Personal Statement
I have been playing soccer since the first grade, and the reason I am still playing today is because I love the game. Soccer has taught me some valuable lessons, and it has ultimately helped me with how I take on challenges in life. If I was not participating in soccer, I wouldn't have the grades and focus that I do today. I am very hard working and look to improve each day on and off the field. I strive to take any advice that is given to me and use it in any way I can. Even though soccer is a major aspect of my life, academics and a great education is what I value the most. However, playing at a collegiate level would be an exciting and new adventure I wish to embark upon. I believe that playing at a collegiate level would also teach me helpful lessons and techniques that I can use later on in my life. Soccer is a part of my life, and I want to keep learning and improving each day.
