Hello, my name is Mackenzie, and for as long is I can remember I played soccer. Growing up playing soccer I found my passion for the game. I work very hard every day to improve my skills even during the off-season. I show dedication by giving it my all in any game or practice. I don’t just push myself to be better I also push my teammates to play to their full potential. Last year I won two leadership awards, one for my school team and one for my club team. I believe I am a strong leader because I encourage my team to do better and lift them up when mistakes are made. The most important thing to me is that everyone puts in effort and together as a team we celebrate wins and grieve over losses. I play very competitively but I always remember to have fun and enjoy this beautiful game.
