My name is Ruby Robinson, and I am a Senior at IMG Academy, graduating in 2025. From a young age, I have been driven by a passion for soccer, with the ultimate goal of playing at the collegiate level. My journey has taken me across the globe, having lived in Denmark, Japan, and Singapore, where I developed into a resilient, culturally aware individual. These experiences have not only shaped my character but have also equipped me with a unique perspective and a deep sense of empathy that I bring to every community I am a part of.
As a student-athlete, I am eager to excel in a diverse academic environment while making meaningful contributions to both my team and campus culture. My international background has taught me the importance of adaptability, a trait that has served me well both on and off the field.
On the soccer field, I am a right-footed outside back, known for my versatility in playing both the right and left sides. This flexibility has made me an invaluable asset to my team. During my sophomore year, I played for the U16 IMG Premier team at the left-back position. Our hard work paid off as we became League Champions of the USYS Sunshine Conference with a record of 11-1-2, and we were also finalists in the Southern Regional Bracket.
In my junior year at IMG Academy, I played on the U17 Premier team, starting at both left and right back positions based on the team's needs. This was a pivotal year for me, as I made significant strides in my physical conditioning, technical skills, and leadership abilities. Our team went on to become League Champions of the USYS Sunshine Conference, Florida State Cup Champions, and finalists in the Southern Regional Bracket.
My diverse experiences, both in life and on the field, have prepared me to thrive in the next phase of my journey. I am excited to bring my dedication, adaptability, and passion for soccer to the collegiate level, where I am confident I will continue to grow and contribute to a team's success.
