Jasmine Walia '25 Recruiting Profile

My name is Jasmine and I technically graduate in 2024 but because I am an 07 and one year ahead in school, I am planning on taking a gap year and entering college in fall 2025 with the rest of the 2007 age group. I am also open to enrolling earlier if it works out that way. I currently play club soccer for Calgary Foothills 07 AYSL team from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and for the Vancouver Whitecaps FC Calgary Caps to College Girls team. I am strong academically, as I currently have a 3.5 GPA and had an overall 95% average in grade ten. I strive to excel in both my academics and soccer. In addition, I think an attribute that sets me apart from other players is my technical ability on the ball and my speed of play. I am very coachable, and I am a leader on and off the field. I have a strong work ethic and will always give 100%. I am interested in pursuing biology and would like to play soccer at a school that provides strong competition, academically and athletically.
