Throughout my short life journey, soccer has been an enormous part of my life. I began playing soccer at a young age; this is the point in my life when I fell in love with the sport. As I grew older soccer became less of a hobby, and more of a lifestyle. Today, I am literate in the sport of soccer, because I have proficient skills, and a firm understanding of the game. I consider myself very soccer savvy, however the most important literacies I have acquired from soccer were the life skills of…

Walking into the TOC that early morning on July 25, I was nervous and didn’t know what to expect.

6. The symbols on the front and back of the play are black and white imagery colouring, cramped images, decking, dark colours being used, blue, red and white colours. 7. In reference to the play the symbols have their own significance and meaning. To me, these symbols have been used to reflect on the hard and poor conditions on a refugee boat. I think that the dark colours were used to set a tone of mystery and depth. I feel that the colour blue has been used as a symbol of trust and faith,…

engaging with many sports." Like many student-athletes in this world, I have a spark. A spark that motivates them every day. The spark that makes you get up in the morning and you are looking to be attending it. My spark was playing sports such as football, soccer, and basketball. To begin with, maintaining adequate grades has always been one of my top priorities. Just as important, participating in extracurricular activities at school has taught me quite a bit through the years. Running…

When I was 14, I struggled on my soccer team, so I got private sessions with another coach twice a week. I would go out and practice and work over and over again. These trainings were painfully boring, but my coach would simply ask me to do drills over, pointing out mistakes I made as I went. I nearly quit. Towards the end of the season, the C team coach, someone who I didn't know at all, came up and asked me to try playing with him for a game or two. During the games, I started out feeling…

Put one foot in front of the other. One of the most famous lines from the Christmas classic, Santa Clause is Coming to Town. A simple jingle sung across America every year come December 25th. A simple, innate action that billions of people take for granted every single day without even realizing it. The basic ability to walk is the single greatest ability us human's posses, and it is the reason why the human race was able to figuratively climb to the top of the food chain many years ago. On…

DCAS Reflection During my time doing the 8th grade project, I experienced many new things and learned what it is to be a good mentor and soccer coach. I had several training sessions with young girls from the ages of 7-10 years old. My ultimate goal was to help them develop a deep love for the game, and inspire them to work on their own and become better. I wanted to show the girls I trained that through hard work and dedication, it is possible to become extraordinary at anything. By coaching…

It was in Clinton - DeWitt, The day started out by loading the bus at six in the morning at Senior. The sun was already out but the air still had a cold chill to it. All the girls on the team looked tired, their hair was messy and their eyes were barley open. I walked onto the bus and smelled something warm. I walk to the…
