in college, I got involved with a community outreach; we partner with the Dream Center of Lakeland and go play and interact with the kids in that community. It is amazing the things some of these kids have to endue everyday, but when they get a football in their hands, they’re just any other ordinary kid. All the worries, fears, hardship slip away. Some of those kids believe that sports is their only way “out of the hood.” They use them as a motivation to be better than people perceive them to…

In my opinion, playing high school sports is one of the best extracurricular activities in high school. My freshman year I participated in football, basketball, and golf. I had fun playing each of these sports, and I took pleasure in being highly involved in hobbies outside of class.

He also talks about how having confidence is another key attribute to…

confidence I gained. Even though I didn’t win a match until 5th grade, I kept working because winning felt good. Immediately I learned that if I wanted to be successful, I had to put in the work at practices. Once I got into 7th grade I decided to join football team and the track team.

In the NHL it is not prohibited for two players to have a fist fight mid game and some people believe this should not be happening because there are kids watching therefore exposing them to violence. There are many reasons that these fights occur, such as retaliation, intimidation, and deterrence but some people argue these are not good reasons to assault another player.
