The goalie, baba, was always there to help me improve at anything in life and in that instance it was the game of soccer, or “football” as referred to in Pakistan.

one I am most passionate about. When I first started playing soccer, I was about five years old. Even though I was only five I still deeply enjoyed playing games and practicing. Then when I was about six, seven, and eight I played recreational soccer with a lot of my friends. I had a lot of fun with that team and all of my friends on that team.

A very special moment in my life that I didn’t want to end, was senior night in my final high school soccer season. This was the last time I would ever get to go out and play in front of the home crowd. Playing at home was always fun because all my friends would come and support me.

Before the game they had all of the seniors walk out on the field with their parents…
