Personal Statement
As I have been preparing for my senior year, I have come to realize just how important the game of volleyball is to me. The sport has taught me the value of teamwork, dedication, and perseverance. Playing in college will provide a deep connection with my new teammates and coaches, as I make this critical transition in life. The experience of being a college student-athlete will prepare me best for challenges that lie ahead.
I believe that I would be an asset to any team that is looking for a strong defensive specialist. I have developed solid technical skills in the back row from extensive training and high level club experience. From playing multiple varsity seasons at a very successful high school program, I have steadily become an excellent leader. I have learned to visualize the court and communicate effectively with my teammates, helping make us a stronger, more cohesive unit. I keep the team grounded during challenging matches through example and positive encouragement.
My goal is to attend a school where I can study Graphic Design/ Visual Communications and play volleyball for a strong program that emphasizes hard work and team unity. I hope to play for a coach who will challenge and encourage me to achieve my full potential as a college student-athlete. I want to be on a team where chemistry is valued and where I can be part of something special, as I prepare for my professional life beyond the game.
