Personal Statement
I started playing soccer in Brazil, and as a matter of fact the first club team I competed with was in Brazil. This experience allowed me to see the other side of soccer, the fighting and competition. Soccer has taught me a lot about myself. I've noticed my work ethic, leadership, and drive increase, both on and off the field. Soccer has definitely impacted certain aspects of myself. After years of playing soccer, I believe my strengths are dribbling, passing, finishing, control of the ball, and vision of the game. I believe one of the key things you need to strive in the midfield is awareness, the ability to know whats around you. I have exceptional awareness allowing me to see all parts of the field and be able to reach most players. I am a good teammate on and off the field, I’ve been through everything in terms of soccer, so i believe I’m able to connect with almost anyone. I make sure to make everyone feel good. I am a leader, setting up and motivating the team during games. I’m also extremely driven, I will leave everything on the field before I leave. These are the things that make me a great soccer player.
