Describe how I work in a team with my partners

I support the people around me just like they support me I have been told countless times I bring energy and drive for others on the court. I truly do enjoy making other people play better on the court and watching us take a lead in a game when we are all flowing well and hyping each other up.

Athlete of the year

– honoured, I felt as though I was appreciated by my teammates and that made me feel very special and deserving and gave me a drive to play harder for them.

Captain for a winning nationals year

Responsibility, I liked the pressure it brought me I usually play better under stress and can support people around me better when I feel as though it is my job. being named captain the year we won nationals improved my leadership immensely.

Involvement in other sports? Extra curricular?

I played rep field hockey for 4 years and I played up on a 16u team when I was 11 I truly enjoyed it but I chose volleyball because I mixed with it better it was more of a team sport and challenged me more which is why I loved it. I also played basketball and won mvp in my grade 8 year, I stopped playing because I wanted to put all my energy into volleyball and become the best player I could.

Interest outside of sports?

I enjoy math, and business, and arts I am a good drawer it helps me learn how to concentrate I enjoy math because it challenges me a lot and I love solving really tough equations, business is where my heart is at because I love talking numbers and debating.

I aspire to compete and play with the passion he did, I want to lead and have the drive he did I listen to some of his quotes or re peat when u workout because of how motivational he is. I want to work as hard as he did and play as hard as he did and inspire everybody around him just with a look like he did.
