Personal Statement

Athletics have been a huge part of my life since I was a child. I have played volleyball since grade five and hope to continue playing at the varsity level in University. I believe that I am a very hardworking, committed, focused, enthusiastic and motivated volleyball player. I am also very versatile having played numerous positions including middle, left side, right side, and libero. I have played many sports throughout my years including soccer, softball, basketball, volleyball, badminton, track and field and flag football. Playing sports has taught me the value of team work and the importance of time management.  Athletics mean so much to me because I really enjoy being active and challenging myself to try new things. I am continuing to work on becoming a stronger, better libero in the next few months as it has become my favourite position and I have contributed consistently to both my club and school teams. I am a very committed athlete and believe it is extremely important to keep a balanced lifestyle between extracurricular activities and academics.  I am confident that I would make a difference to any team that I am made part of.
