Personal Statement
From the early years of Buddy League Basketball, middle school years, high school basketball and AAU teams the sport of basketball has been my passion. My love for this sport begin many years ago. It is my desire to further my basketball career by playing at the college level. I am inspired to continue playing this sport for many reasons. Throughout my years of playing basketball I have been taught many skills by my coaches and team members. However, my skills are just one important factor in my decision to play at the next level. I truly love the sportsmanship and team work that is an important part of the game. It is my goal to enter college and earn a degree in education and eventually become a basketball coach. I hope to have the opportunity to give back to younger generations as my coaches have given to me. I strive to be the best I can be in any situation and never give up. I am very much aware that there is always room for improvement and I sincerely accept guidance from my family, teachers, and coaches.
