Lots of the actives I participate in require Teamwork skills. These activities include soccer, Jiu Jitsu, and school.

The berserk cheer moms hoot and holler for their daughters as they proceed to the floor. Many girls are pondering the question of how in the world they made it. As I pursue my goal of making it to states, I am blessed with my prime team; however I am obligated to conquer the adversities to achieve this mission for my team and I.…

My Opinion on Water Polo Do you want to find the perfect sport to play? Although there are many sports to choose from, I think water polo is the best. Water polo is a combination of swimming, wrestling, soccer, and basketball. Water polo is a tough sport which requires a lot of endurance.

When asked nowadays many people say they look up to superstar athletes and celebrities as their role models. The dictionary’s definition of a role model is a person whose behavior, example, or success is or can be emulated by others, especially by younger people.

The role models we choose are how we want our lives to look like in the future. We all need role…

clothing, ticket sales, etc. Don’t think people believe they don’t belong to their favorite franchise? Pay attention to the possessive pronouns used such as: we, mine, and ours. You can most likely tell that I am not a supporter of professional football (of any professional sport actually) but I do enjoy sports and the essence of competition. “This interactive assessment is asking for a solution to a surface-related problem; one that exists because of other, profounder issues. Then, is it…
