Cameron Life Episode VI A New Hope

Superior Essays
Cameron’s Life: Episode VI a New Hope. In life there are many definite ends like finishing a bowl of pasta, finishing a 4-5 page paper your professor gives to you to finish in two days (I know, what the heck), or leaving a soccer club. At these ends, there are beginnings, eating more food because that 's all I do, starting another paper (Please don 't), and going to a new soccer club. During the intervals between a definite start, and definite ending, there are many small beginnings and endings that we tend to coast over when we think about them. It may be the indefinite endings and beginnings that ultimately lead us to a definite ending or beginning. There are always good and bad endings in life, that 's inevitable, the best thing we can …show more content…
My thought on the club was that we were going to do really well with all the talent and ability on the team. Time went by and I slowly felt as if my vision for the flub was just wasting away, people didn 't know each other so we had bad chemistry throughout the team, people would get into arguments, and our coaches were not performing as well as promised. Half way through the season my high expectations went out the window and I think everyone else’s did too. My teammates and I sort of gave up, with a whole half season, and a few tournaments and showcases left we just kind of gave up. Our attitude led to us hitting a losing streak, until we played Cleveland Football Club, the 3rd highest ranked team in the mid-west region, we ended up losing to the team by one in a 2-3 game. This game gave us hope, we ended up playing teams hard again and winning most of the second half of our season. By the end of the season the team ended up falling apart, some players left to go to one team, some to another, I however ended up being the only person going to Cleveland Football Club. I went to the tryouts where I felt very comfortable because I had played on the same team as most of the guys there back at Brunswick travel. After three tryout practices, I found my spot on the team being one of the few who ended up making it onto the …show more content…
We gained a few new players who had great skill to bring to the table, a few players who could not perform at this level got cut, and we all connected very well. My new team at Cleveland Football Club had much better chemistry from the year prior, and much better than my old club Cleveland Kickers. My Coach figured out who should play where, we got our formation back to a 4-4-2, and we got that down very well. We went to many college showcases in order to have scouts watching us, and we won more tournaments than our team had ever won. My team made it to the semifinals of the State Cup, and ended up losing in double

    Therefore, this was a team of small freshmen and sophomores playing against mostly juniors and seniors at the varsity level in one of the most talented high school conferences in the state. We finished the season 1-15, most of which were pretty tough losses but we worked hard and left it all on the field every game and that in the end is all that matters. The most prevalent memory was after the last game all the players were pretty upset about how it went but our coach ended our last huddle with, “We came into this season knowing it would be challenging and we worked hard from start to finish and I think we ended this season better than we started, which means that next year is gonna be a pretty good…

    With an 8-0 record and a combined point total of 217-14, everyone in our district had high expectations. As the seasons changed and the leaves broke apart and disappeared from sight, so did our highly coveted class of 2018. Half of my teammates either open enroll to other schools or just simply quit with no rhyme or reason to why. What would follow within the next three seasons was nothing less of an absolute beatdown from our opponents. I won't lie, it was heart-wrenching to witness all the work us remaining boys put in and to still have no trophy or banner to represent our efforts.…

    I used to be the last person to be picked in football every time, even the really bad players got picked before me, I didn't think about it much at all so i didn’t understand why i was not picked first because I thought I was pretty good and should have been the first or second pick not the last.

    We were not a bad team either, but I really wanted to play more soccer, also play more competitively. Along the way, one of my friends named Nate wanted me to come train and guess play with a travel team named Chelsea. The first few training sessions went pretty well, so the team allowed me to guess play in a tournament. Of course, I was on the second team because I have never really played with these boys and the coaches have not seen me enough.…

    I went to elementary and middle school in Monroe City, before transferring to South Shelby my freshman year. That was the best decision I’ve made so far in my life. At first, I was worried. I didn’t think that any high school could be so friendly that they didn’t actually need locks on the lockers. But, after my mom talked to the cheerleading coach at the time, I realized that maybe this school is somewhat nice.…

    I remember the feeling of walking out on our soccer field in a uniform line next to my best friends. There was something about knowing that we were going to be the best team our school had ever seen was something truly special. Our school is very well known for our football, wrestling, drill team, and softball. Soccer has never really been a sport that other schools were nervous about playing us in, but we were sure that was going to change this year. Our first game of the preseason went exactly how we wanted it too.…
