Volleyball

I want to be a captain because I feel a strong passion for volleyball and I want every volleyball player to enjoy this sport as much as I do. I will represent the Sartell volleyball team by supporting, encouraging, and motivating everyone. I will execute this by bringing positive energy into the gym and always being there to support each individual volleyball player in this program. 2. What qualities do you have that would make you a successful captain? There are many qualities that I acquire…

Jr. High, I excelled in sports playing basketball in the fall, volleyball in the winter, and track and field during the spring. I knew that playing sports in high school would take up a lot of time, and push me to my limits. After thinking for awhile, I decided that I was up for the challenge. The decision to play sports was definitely the right choice to make. While I played only one year of basketball, I played four years of volleyball and will be participating in my fourth year of track and…

This story happened during my vacation in Kiribati Islands. We stayed there in deep overwater bungalow! Like the one on the picture below. There were many fun things to do in the island like swimming, water tubing, scuba diving, snorkeling and many others but still it turned out to be a nightmare! It became a misery because I couldn’t text any of my friends for ten whole days. That’s right, I said ten whole days since there was no wifi in the place we stayed. The exposition of memoir itself is…

NSU has been my dream school ever since my junior year in high school. I remember walking on the campus for a volleyball clinic and feeling like I was at home. I immensely wanted to play volleyball at NSU, but didn’t get offered a scholarship to play there. I was offered a volleyball scholarship for FMU. In the lion’s den as a destined shark I suffered emotionally, physically, and mentally at FMU. I didn’t feel comfortable on the campus, I didn’t…

one of us look forward to the practices. Whether practice includes sprints, drills, or shooting, finding the enjoyment is often during the games. The demonstration of how basketball has impacted my life is shown through the game. In a manner like volleyball, basketball has manifested the idea of teamwork into my head. Keeping five different minds on the same page has shown that teamwork isn’t as manageable as it seems. The game has created the opportunity to expand my thinking capacity by…

which at the time was volleyball. Even though, she played volleyball for 10 years she still didn’t practice for more than 10000 hours which is the number of hours you need to be successful at something according to Gladwell. On the other hand, I think practice leads to success but like my sister you don’t need 10000 hours of practice to be successful at…

myself because if I wanted to be on the volleyball team I had to stay and commit to volleyball camp. The only thing that really upset me was that our trip to Florida was on the same day as volleyball camp. Having to choose between something I love and something else I love really disappointed me. So of course I chose to go on the vacation with my family, because they are way more important to me. At first, I wasn’t so excited to go because I wasn't sure if volleyball camp would be equal in…

three years ago. From a young age, I have been involved in volleyball. I first began playing rec volleyball which kept me active and didn’t take up a lot of extra time. Then when I got to high school, volleyball began to take up more and more of my time. For nearly two years I participated in volleyball year-round and was becoming a good all-around player, and my coaches were starting to recognize that. But this all changed one away volleyball match. Our team was behind, but we were slowly…

It is human nature to want to help those in need. Therefore, it is natural for me to pursue a career that allows me to help those in need. I feel that there is no other career path more rewarding than one in the field of medicine. In my opinion, giving someone the chance to live a healthy life is the best way I can help others. This is the goal that I wish to accomplish, and attending Florida State University will be my first big step towards achieving that goal. In an effort to achieve my…

It seems as if time has frozen and all is still. All the children look over to Anna who is wearing her long blonde hair in a messy high bun with bright blue volleyball shorts, a gray top, and shoes Anna is standing in front of the volleyball rack, outside in the muddy grass with a look of horror and devastation on her face. Anna’s volleyball that she had just got for her birthday was missing! “Ahhhhh!” she screams. Suddenly there was an aura…
