Volunteer High Sc...Personal Statement
I am a junior attending Volunteer High School in Church Hill, Tennessee. I currently am a kicker/punter on the varsity football team for my high school. Football has been my passion for many years. Not only has football been a sport for me, but it has taught me many things about life as well such as respect, attitude, and dedication to achieving a goal. My biggest motivator is the fact that people tell me I can not be successful in collegiate football because of the location where I live, but I am ready to prove them wrong.
My ultimate goal for football is to be a kicker on the professional level. I am ready to do whatever it takes to make that dream a reality. Because of my tenacity, strong work ethic, and leadership qualities, I would be a great asset to any collegiate football team.
