Jordan Newton '22 Recruiting Profile

I started at the age of 5 playing soccer and racing dirt bikes. In 2016 I won the 65cc Provincial Championship in the AOTMX club and was also a team mate on the winning junior high school basketball team. I started Crossfit training in 2018 and competed in the Canadian Open. I tried out for the Vancouver Whitecaps club back in 2019. I was 15 at the time up against 16 yr olds. I made an impression and was asked to return the following year. Unfortunately this is when Covid struck and since then most activities have been canceled. My parents tell me that during a parent-teacher interview one of my teachers told them that I was the friendliest students he's ever come across in his entire career. I'm told I have a very strong soccer IQ and have been asked to play other positions when needed. I never have any trouble making new friends and can easily integrate into new situations. I'd like to go pro some day but need to have a plan B and this is the next step.
