Personal Statement

Soccer to me has never been just a game; it’s always been the drive in my life that has shaped me into who I am today as a student-athlete. Soccer has taught me to be disciplined and strategic. It has made me responsible for my actions both on and off the field and to never blame someone else for my mistakes. I strive to master all aspects of this sport, which involves year-round participation in high school, travel, and ODP teams. It requires 100% effort during practices and games, analyzing feedback from coaches, and tweaking my skills to make me the best player I can be. I will continue to work diligently on these tasks with the hope of getting the opportunity to play on a college team. This has been my dream since I started competing in this sport at age three, and I want it to become my reality after I graduate from Richmond High School.

Evaluation below: Coach Name: Coach Spires Type of Player: Field Player Technical Skills: Vision: 4 - Very Good Touch: 5 - Outstanding Shooting: 5 - Outstanding Dribbling: 4 - Very Good Passing: 5 - Outstanding Technical Comments: You're an excellent player that is well positioned to go pursue a college career. You're strong on the ball, have excellent control, and a high motor. The best thing for you to focus on to prepare you for the next step is your vision. I would like to see you increase your scanning of the field when not on the ball. Remember to look to the edges of the pitch when scanning. This will allow you to use your peripheral vision to capture the bigger picture and anticipate play (improving your distribution and situational awareness). Non-Technical Skills: Communication: 5 - Outstanding Work Ethic: 5 - Outstanding Team Player: 5 - Outstanding Sportsmanship: 5 - Outstanding Non-Technical Comments: You have all the character attributes we look for in our players here at AU. You encourage your teammates, you have a drive to excel, you're driven to improve and win. Keep these attributes in soccer AND life and you will be successful in all your endeavors.
