my sports essay by brandy jeanelle reyes. ganesha high school Pomona California
Sports are not just
the things I do for fun, but they have become the things that have
greatly impacted me to influence becoming the person that I am at
this very point and time. I have played
soccer since I was 9, and
ran cross country and track since my high school freshmen year.
Getting to play soccer was a whole new experience for me; it was an opportunity for me to get away and let go of some of the crucial experiences I have never thought as a child would face and for me it was being able to let go of those frustrations and anger that was locked up inside me for so long. Soccer has become one of my true desires in life. Soccer has led me to new methods of dealing with my past and present experiences, to learning it is still ok to be a kid and have fun while becoming a better person in the process. Through soccer I have learned the importance of sportsmanship, respect, and cooperating not only with my fellow team mate but with my opponents as well; it has earned me the spot as a captain for my Varsity soccer team and cross country team. |

| Running not only helped improve my ability to play soccer at the high school varsity level, but also taught me the meaning of discipline, and being able to withhold more challenges and obstacles thrown at me, such as bettering my time management with my family, academics, social life, and sports. Outgoing, well-rounded, strong, intelligent, optimistic, affable, and confident are the word I can now use confidently to describe the outcomes to the better person I have become and will always be from the positive influence I get everyday from sports. |
