Jean paul Gonzalez '23 Recruiting Profile

I am a 17 year old senior, Class of ‘23, attending Ossining High School. I am a Left back/ Center back. I have played 2 years in varsity, 2 years in Jv, 4+ years in Club. Won 3+ tournaments\leagues  with My Teams. I have played for Ossining Varsity soccer team, Munay B05, Eastern FC.  
Awards: All league ‘22 , River cup Champions ‘22, ’22 EDP League Champions, ’22 Spring League champs.  Ranked: 4th out of 16 teams in Class AA, Section 1.

I am a player who has a great amount of vision at the left back/ Center Back position, I am able to read the game quickly and have a huge amount of knowledge at positioning and being able to create a significant amount of possession with my sharp passing. Having  good vision on the field allows me to be able to send through balls that are critical to the opposition and be able to create attacking chances for my team. With my vision off the ball,  I can scan the field to read the game and be ahead of those who aren’t paying attention to the speed of the game, I can also see where my teammates may be positioned before I receive the ball in order  to give a clear direction of what I wanna do with the ball when I have it. 

Defensively, I am fearless and will never be afraid of going up against a challenge. My work ethic helps me fight for the ball until the whistle blows and not be afraid of when it’s time to dive into a tackle or a header for my team. ( I have Clean & Aggressive tackles).

Leadership/communication,  I speak confidently to  my teammates with the intention of motivation or constructive criticism,  I like being vocal and informing my team on everything that’s going on in the game, This has been a skill I have largely developed over the years and Can only improve on it in the future.
