Hello, I'm Jabari Holtkamp. Even before I could walk, I was kicking a soccer ball. As a child, I trained with my dad who's also my inspiration when it comes to playing this beautiful game. Over the years, we've enjoyed countless hours of training together, as well as watching it on tv. My dream has always been to become a professional soccer player when I grew up. I've had the opportunity to play at the professional level at 9 years of age with Fortuna Sittard (Netherlands) and as a teenager with MVV (Netherlands).
I currently live overseas due to having both parents work for the military. This has been a blessing in disguise because it has afforded me the chance to play in a country where soccer is the main sport. After graduation, I would like to move back home and attend a college in America. Off the field, my friends would describe me as spontaneous and kind-hearted. However, on the field they know me as confident, agile, and a fierce competitor. I've played a lot of street soccer (pleintjes) where if you don't stand your ground, you are left out. I am a natural-born leader and team player. I've been a starter all my life and strive to continue to improve my skills with every practice and game. This has allowed me to play for two teams, simultaneously: u19 and u23.
I have made my debut on a first team a couple of times and am not afraid of a challenge. Although I might be a small player, I can handle myself with those bigger than me. I play a fast- paced game with a lot of passing. My strengths are my ability to dribble and dominate when playing 1v1. I'm a versatile player and can play both offense and defense. I rarely lose a defensive play. I am not a fan of playing the long ball, I love to have the ball on my feet; I love build up play. I would love to find a team that is consistent with my style of play. I am positive I can be an asset to any team I'm fortunate enough to play with. After all, soccer is a great team sport which I enjoy tremendously.
I look forward to meeting collegiate-level coaches and their staffs, learning more about the schools, respectively, as well as the amazing opportunities in my future.
