It is with great pleasure that I recommend Robert Williams. A kind and intelligent student, Robert is making the most of his high school career. Robert has exhibited these characteristics both in and outside of the classroom. I have been impressed with his dedication to academics and community. There is definitely more than meets the eye with Robert. An exemplary student with an apparent concern for others, he has distinguished himself among his peers. Not only does Robert set high academic standards for himself, but also high moral standards. He is confident in his decisions and is unyielding to the peer pressure that high school students face. The ability to reach such high standards and goals can most definitely be attributed to Robert’s motivation, dedication and consistent effort. Robert is an individual who shows purpose in every aspect of his life. I find it difficult to express how genuinely superior Robert is on a personal level. He is truly one of the most respectful and kindest …show more content…
Robert’s athletic talent shine on the court and the field. Robert is a true team player, which has and will continue to be an important part of his continued successes. He utilizes his ability not only to help his team, but for no personal gain, without hesitation he looks beyond self to help others. As an assistant coach to middle school students throughout his high school career and running a baseball clinic for little league players his senior year, Robert not only enjoys sharing his talents, but also feels a responsibility to help others and fortunate to be able to do so. I am certain his love of basketball and baseball have played an important role in the development of the person he is today. Robert recognizes athletics has provided him with not only the most fun in his life, but also with valuable life lessons about respect, trust, hope and

Victor has great ability to fit in, be a part of any group, and basically get lead peers, teacher, and mentees regardless of the situation. It is Victors ability to unselfishly lead these groups that allows me to write this letter for him. When Victor works with a group he leads the group in a way that is nonabrasive. He feels for individual needs and he has the ability to understand people’s feelings.…

    Baseball Is A Sport Essay

    Baseball is a sport that many consider to be “America’s pastime.” It has been something that has been passed down for generations in families, along with being played across the world. According to Hanson and Ravizza (2007), the players within this specific sport have claimed that they feel the level of performance shown by them is consisting of mental and emotional elements. Since baseball is commonly started at a young age and transformed from the area of deliberate play into practice throughout the development stage of a child, it leaves many opportunities for a person to develop issues that need to be worked upon when they make it to the professional level. The people who surround the athlete throughout their playing career play an influential part in their life, and could determine how they deal with issues as they arise (Makhni, Buza, Byram, & Ahmad, 2014).…

    Leeja Carter is a faculty member at the Adler School of Professional Psychology in the sport and health psychology department of Temple University. Studies have shown that, when confronted by their favorite athlete's bad behavior, sports fans utilize a number of coping mechanisms to retain their admiration for the athlete. These mechanisms include ignoring or refusing to believe the news of the athlete's misconduct (denial), forgiving the behavior outright, or gradually forgetting the transgression as the athlete works to repair his or her image. This willingness to overlook inappropriate acts is implicit in the athlete-fan relationship.…

Because of this, I grew accustomed to the ring of the victory bell and the satisfying validation that came from it. However, after many years of relentless training and competition, what has taught me most is not the split-second touch of victory, but the long stretch of perpetual failure. At the age of sixteen my athletic improvement became halted without explanation in a sport in which the sole purpose is to outperform the athlete you had been in the race before.…
