Exemplar service programs that I contributed with were Swing for Laurie’s Kids, a tennis program intended for people with a mental handicap; as well as Top Soccer, a soccer camp for individuals with a mental impairment.

At school I undertake the task of managing…

learn about the things you are comfortable with and you don't get the feel of what a ball is like or what it feels like to go against a real life person. Another example of a way experience would help you more than reading a book is in tennis. Tennis is a sport that relies on the different positions of your body that will put power behind the ball when you hit it with your racket in a certain direction. In a book you can't learn these things because it matters on what kind of body type…

One example of this is when I tried out for the tennis team. At first, I was rejected. I was disappointed, but I knew that if I practiced as much as I could over the summer, I would be able to get on the team by the time the second tryouts came around. So, I practiced as hard and as frequently as I could, and sure enough, I got on the team. If I had given up when I had first hit a setback, I wouldn’t be playing tennis with all my teammates right now. Another time that I was persistent…

For example, a soccer player would need more focus on their legs, while a tennis player may need some attention to their upper back and shoulders. Sports massages also reduce recovery time and get the athlete back to their…

you’re a teenager, like me. But did you know there’s a way to stop time? Okay not literally but… there are little things for each and everybody that helps them slow down and forget and just be in the moment. For me, it’s tennis practice, at night, in the dark, by myself. To me, tennis is a representation of life. When it’s time for the sun to set, it’s time for me to arrive.

This is a story when my sister and I moved schools. We moved from Bostic Traditional Magnet Elementary School to Pleasantview Elementary School. We moved from Wichita to Derby in about a year. Which means we moved schools very quickly and I lost contact with a lot of my friends. I didn't have much fun because I had know except two of my friends from Bostic. My parents told us when we were in 4th and 2nd grade that we would be moving to Derby because we had bought land in. They said we could…

into consideration the less obvious, required items. For example, if an indoor rock climbing excursion is planned, the rock climbing website might not have explicitly stated that tennis shoes are required. While the website didn’t say tennis shoes are required it could be very difficult to do rock climbing in sandals, so tennis shoes should still be packed.
