Personal Statement
I started playing basketball when I was four years old in Alvik Basket with my older brother. I was always smaller than the other players on the court, so having a disadvantage I focused on developing my fundamentals, and even though my teammates were two or three years my senior, I eventually made the first team where I played for a few years.
The last three years I´ve been playing in Alvik Basket mens developing team where I´m a starting point guard (/shooting guard) (jersey # 9) and team captain. We play in division one u19 series and Basketettan (the third highest mens league in Sweden). At the moment all my sports leagues have been cancelled due to the pandemic and will start again next year. Therefore, I've been doing my outmost to develop my skills further, practicing at least 9 times a week with my team and School, (Bromma Gymnsaium (NIU), a student athlete program comparetive to high school, but we only practice).
I take pride in always doing my best, both as an athlete and academicly. My best qualities as a player are my basketball IQ, my shooting ability, my leadership, my strive to always go hard in practice and competitive drive to win. I take joy in scoring but dishing out assists and locking down my opponent on the defensive side, is almost of greater satisfaction. I´m looking for a serious basketball (and academic) program where I can compete on the highest level and develop my skills as a basketball player.
