Personal Statement
My name is Maddie Forbes. I am a junior at the Harpeth Hall School, an all-girls college preparatory school in Nashville, Tennessee. I will graduate in May 2017. My goal is to play volleyball at an academically rigorous college or university.
I am a very strong student with a 3.84/4 GPA, and my classes include Honors English III, Honors French IV, AP United States History, Pre-calculus, and Physics.
Volleyball has been an important part of my life since I began playing in 6th grade. I have played club volleyball since 7th grade, each year on the top team at my club (Ethos Volleyball Club) until I switched this past season to play for Alliance on its 16-2 team. While I played outside/opposite hitter for my club team at Alliance, I have been a varsity outside hitter since my freshman year at Harpeth Hall. I play all six rotations, as outside hitter and middle back.
Both my teachers and my coaches would describe me as a goal-oriented hard worker. I will bring those qualities to whichever college team I am fortunate enough to join.
