Personal Statement
For as long as I can remember, soccer has been my greatest passion. Soccer has taught me resilience and how to respond to situations while under pressure. It also taught me the value of hard work and dedication. Leadership, teamwork, and discipline are the three most important skills that I learned while growing up in the life of soccer. Soccer has been such a crucial and essential part of my life. When I'm not playing on the field, I'm watching games on T.V.
Although soccer is a big part of my life, I'm also very serious academically. I believe that a school which is strong academically and athletically is the best fit for me. Soccer has helped me become a role model and leader on and off the field. As a result, my leadership and discipline allow me to be a great teammate and model for others to follow. I will use what I have learned playing soccer and look forward to applying it to my next challenge, a collegiate level.
