Personal Statement
I would be a good candidate for your program because I have many qualities that would contribute in many ways. I am a team player and I always put my team before myself. Softball is a team sport and you can’t be successful unless the whole team is going in the same direction. My high school coach always told me that “the team is a band of sisters and one person’s decision affects the whole team and we either gain or lose from it.” I am also a hard worker and I don’t feel satisfied with myself until I know I have done something to the best of my ability. I have been told I am very coachable and I work hard to improve myself on the field, in my training and in the classroom. I believe good grades give you more options in your future. They show that hard work was put in to achieve them and that school is an important part of your success. I currently have a 3.7 GPA and am enrolled in honors and AP classes. I have been able to achieve this while being in sports and have been able to find the balance between the two. I know I would be a solid contributor to your team and to your school. I look forward to speaking with you.
Thank you,
