Personal Narrative Essay About Soccer

Improved Essays
Soccer isn't just sport. It’s a lifestyle. Without soccer, I don't know where I would be today. The freshly mowed green grass underneath my cleats, the earthy smell of the dirt filling my nose, the pure, clean air all around engulfs me in its embrace.

The girl on the other team places the ball on the spot and gets lined up to shoot. If our goalie saves this, we go home as champions. The whistle is blown, she shoots……… AND THE GOALIE SAVES IT! We win! We win! It's all over, and Polonia takes home the gold! (Just kidding, but we do get really cool trophies) That was one of my fondest memories of my team and I. One thing that means a lot to me is

    Fall sports are underway, and many student-athletes are lacing up their cleats and sneakers, and taking their respective places on high school athletic fields. While many may argue that soccer is an objective sport, there is a high degree of subjectivity. The coaching staff is accountable for all decisions, including the roster on game days. They choose which players’ start, how long he/she plays, and whether or not substitutes will take the field. Most people don’t want to talk about their failures, but it’s what you do with failure that defines you as a leader.…
