For about seven years I have been playing and i had been improving.I still had no support from my family. Saturday mornings who be our games and I would see parents come down to our games for their children enjoying the game. It always breaks my heart cause for seven years i never had the love nor the support they had from their families. One morning i had a game i went off and i didn’t come back home. I tore my ACL (anterior cruciate ligament). I was out for the rest of the season. I had…

Now, although I made the team, playing time during our games was the next step to overcome, a step that became the biggest obstacle during the entire season since I was not a starter. I would try and do my best at practice, and not miss a single day of practice, or a single game. But after a while I thought that I wasn’t getting the playing time I deserved, so I decided to confront the coach and ask him what I could…

In all my life I've been in every sport you could think of . When you grow up with a family of "star" athletes you basically follow the genes of your family. When my brother wanted to play football he had to tryout. On the next day of his tryouts, I learn how to play football. If you don't know think about football, except for the fact people tackle other people and use a football. Trying to play would be tough. When my dad was teaching me; we started with the basics. The basics of football…

lunchtime. The hot summer sun beat down on the faces of the families in the stands during the last Little League game of the season. Moms, finding comfort in the familiar faces of friends forged through three months of uncomfortable green bleachers, bee stings and sunburns, chatted casually about the back-to-school sales for the upcoming year. A handful of men, still intently focused on the games, paced by the backstop, shouting advice to their progeny, perhaps envisioning a MLB baseball…

My early memory I was five years old I went to my dad's championship baseball game it was a flaming day but the game was very intense. The last inning started my dad's team was down by one run. My dad's team started to hit the ball of a pitch who throw like if lightning stroke. My dad was almost up to bat there was just a player batting and he had two runners on base and the player hit a ball and the players advanced now it was bases load. My dad told me, “ this is for you mijo”, my dad…

Hunting, something man has been doing for centuries in order to survive. Today some still use it as a food source, others use it for fun, and some use it for serious sport. Many hunters are trophy hunters looking to put something rare and exotic on their walls, but there are many hunters that hunt for the simple fact of conservation. Many animal activist see all hunters the same, as cruel and selfish people. When in fact sportsmen contribute nearly $8 million a day that goes to support wildlife…

The best soccer game I played in was when I was in ninth grade for Forest Lake. We were playing an away game. I play goalkeeper but they wanted me to play defender. So they subbed me in and I played as a defender for a little bit and then they subbed me out and then I was subbed in as goalkeeper in the second half of the game. We were winning the game 2-0 and I was subbed in because the other goalkeeper was tired and wanted to get subbed out. They subbed me in and I had to save a penalty because…

Sports have been around since ancient times. For example, the Olympics were invented by the Greeks in 776 BC. Royal tennis, also known as court tennis was played by French monarchs in the 14th century. Sports were originally made so people can have fun and partake in activities with friends. However, one sport is defeating the purpose of sports. That sport is boxing. I think boxing should be banned because it causes harmful injuries, promotes sportsmanship and is a bad influence on society.…

1. I dislocated my kneecap one day at my old school. It was lunchtime, and the crowded cafeteria was full of noisy teenagers. I was sitting at one of the small round tables at the far end of the room with my friend Cheyenne. Finished with my lunch, I got up to return my tray and felt an unnatural popping sensation in my right knee as I stood from my chair. As my weight shifted I felt my kneecap pop out of place, slide over, and lock into place on the side of my leg. Immediately I fell back into…
