Hi! My name is Courtney howard. I am a 2008 who plays for Diversity FC. I am a 2026 graduate at Shadow ridge highschool in Las Vegas Nevada. So far, I have played 3 years on varsity which started when I was a freshman. I mainly play left and right wing, but I love to play outside defensive back as well. Academic wise I have maintained a 3.7-4.2 GPA throughout my 3 years at Shadow Ridge High School. Throughout my career I have held myself to a standard of only taking honors, advanced placement  and college courses.I am on track to graduate with the high honors award and the mustang medallion which are both very prestigious awards. I am very passionate about excelling in school and pushing myself to greater limits. Not only do I push myself in school but also on the field, recently I have had the opportunity to play with IPA(International Prospect Academy) where I train at the Chula Vista Olympic Training Center and coached by various international coaches. With IPA I have traveled to Germany and Austria and got the chance to play against their top teams which included FC Bayern academy and Red Bull Salzburg Academy where we were the first American team to compete against FC Bayern. I am so grateful to be given the opportunity to have an academic and athletic career and my goal is to continue this journey at the higher level in college not only excelling in academics but also on the soccer field.Soccer has always been my passion and my home when I needed something to turn to i have always dreamed in playing at the higher level. I believe I would be a great fit due to my high IQ not only at the desk but also on the grass. I also have a strong athletic ability which includes running track and field for an extra push in soccer. My commitment to be excellent in both academics and athletics make me a very unique,different, and valuable candidate for your team.
