Personal Statement: A Career As A Soccer Coach

Decent Essays
The career I have chosen is coaching soccer because I love that sport and I would like to get enough knowledge to train players. Also I would like to learn about tactics and motivational methods. It is an interesting career because I think coaches have to be teachers, mentors and trainers, all at the same time.

Coaching soccer is actually a new interest that I have; to be honest I do not know yet what I want to do after I graduate from high school, but I chose this career because I would like to be a professional soccer player, but I think it is too late for me now.

The purpose of this is to show why I chose to be a soccer coach. There are some reasons, first at all, I love soccer, but I think it is too late now to become a soccer player
