I have great leadership, and I always encourage my teammates.  My freshmen year of basketball I was not a starting player;however, my coach said that my leadership ability was very important and made me a critical teammate even if I wasn’t on the court. Even though I was not the star player, my leadership ability made me the most important player to him. Growing up I played many positions on the soccer field, midfield seems the most natural for me. I see the field, I connect passes, I can play long balls, and through balls. I’m good at communicating on the field, I make sure to know who’s around me. I’m very aggressive and not afraid to take a hit, I come to the ball I’m not scared to have the ball at my feet.

I always want to know how I can improve. I have a very strong leg, and a stout body type. Since I am a midfielder I make sure to stay in shape. As a midfielder it is important to understand the game of soccer.
