    If you graduated high school you remember the fast whirlwind of senior year. College applications alone are like a hurricane that won’t give up until it takes everything out of you. They judge you based on grade point average, ACT/SAT scores, and extracurricular activities. Not everyone can have a four point oh grade point average, multiple varsity letters, be president of different organizations, have time for friends and family, and still somehow be a teenager. If you look at a person based solely on their title there aren’t that many leaders.…

    In an article it stated, “Winning is great, but when it comes to youth and high school football, safety, not winning, must be priority No. 1. We owe it to our children to act decisively and take these necessary steps in order to protect their brains on the football field” (Nader and Reed). This statement not only points out that when it comes to sports safety is the last to come in place but also it implies something should be done in order to protect the lives and “brains” of young children involved in sports. Since many teens and young children are involved in sports the best thing to do is to make the sport safer or add different regulations that are specific to how the game should be played in a way people won't get hurt. We need to act…

    One of the most important preparations is an athlete’s confidence. Self-confidence is “belief in one’s powers and a state of assurance exuded by every great athlete, such as Michael Jordan, Jack Nicklaus, Roger Clemens, Wayne Gretzky, Nadia Comaneci, and Serena Williams” (Leith, 2008, p. 18). These great athletes all believe in their skills and abilities, which is considered a good thing in competitive sports. Confidence, many times, is the difference between being a good athlete or the best athlete, the difference between failure and…

    It is incredibly rare to become an athlete. The most popular high school sport is football. Not to mention that over one million high schoolers play football and only 6.5% of those will play college and only 1.6% college players will be drafted to play in the NFL("Probability of Competing beyond high school"). An athlete requires being in peak physical shape, a high school diploma, and a very weird and sometimes unpredictable work schedule(“Athletes and Sports Competitors: Occupational Outlook Handbook:: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics”).

    I dashed to the front of the net, expecting Jacob to take it around and pass. I was right, or so I thought. He took the puck around, intentionally drawing some defense, then fired it through the crease, in front of which I stood. I fired it over the pads, and it hit the net, rolling around for a few seconds before the goalie swept it out for the ref to take. GOAL!…

    The best sport in the world is gymnastics because it teaches you discipline, self-confidence and it is a team and individual sport. Firstly, this amazing sport teaches you discipline. While you are training, there are many rules to be followed to prevent injuries such as a sprained ankle, a hurt wrist and even a pulled muscle. Also, when your coach tells you to do a certain skill or a number of repetitions you have to respect that and do it no matter what because eventually if you keep cheating in your conditioning and skills it will show in your performances. To continue, after training for a few years you eventually develop a great work ethic which means being autonomous and independent.…
