Personal Narrative-My Diverse Soccer Tournament
Over the weekend I had a huge Soccer Tournament in Grey. We had two games on Saturday and one game Sunday. In the first game we played a Cumberland club team and beat them 2-0. In our second game we played Westbrook and won 5-0. So at the end of the day we were 2-0 and in first for our bracket, but winslow was also 2-0. Going into Sunday we had to beat South Portland by two goals and not let them score. We ended up tying them 3-3 and we got eliminated because Winslow beat Westbrook 4-0.

    It had been a long and tough game. The sun was beating down on us and we were all tired when all of a sudden the game’s time limit ran out. We were all tense because no one knew the score. The ref said that the game was tied. We all exhaled. We hadn't even realized we were holding our breaths. That meant we all had to do PKs (Penalty kicks) until one team won.…

    When I was ten years old I tried out for my local travel soccer team. I did not expect to make it, but by some stroke of luck I did. I started playing and it was not what I was expecting. In the past I averaged a hat trick every game, but travel soccer was a lot different. I started playing defense, but that might be an overstatement, because I did not get a whole lot of minutes. I knew that if I wanted to play more I was going to have to put in more work outside of practice. I started practicing everyday switching from running, to foot skills, to agility training. I probably spent more time complaining about it and there were a few time that my parents had to push me to practice, but I knew that I had to put in the work.…

    "France has lost the battle. But France has not lost the war."- Charles de Gaulle. That is a quote I go by as I stand here at the Soccer Academy. I have a memory that really has affected me. That one really embarrassing moment. I have lost my soccer game eleven to four. Those numbers affect the way I play now even though it was about a month ago.…

    “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself” is a phrase that stays true to everyone especially during your freshman year of highschool. When I was fourteen, my baseball team went to a spring showdown baseball tournament. Spring showdowns have always been my favorite type of tournament since I played 10u travel ball. Although now I have a different perspective on these tournaments. On the way home from this particular tournament my face look like a baboons buttocks, with a big red swollen eye that was surrounded by brown and purple bruise. This was from a fouled off baseball, and I will never forget the event or the decisions I had to make. As a freshman I had to learn how to make educated, courageous, and tough life decisions.…

    “BACK SIDE!” I roared. The opposing team made one last run in their attacking third before the clock hit zero. Girls on both teams running diagonally and straight. Some demanding for the ball on the left side of the field, others guarding their mark like there is no tomorrow. All I see is a pool of girls in white and red with pony tails. Out of the corner of my eye a beast-like, brunette gal came storming down the field with an intention to tie the game up. An exquisite ball got played into the air, heading right towards her and myself.…

    I have a lot of experiences about different races. I remembered there was a time about different races conflict that happened during soccer season. That time I was captain so I stood up and ask “ I am not in either sides but we are a team, we suppose to play as a team and help each other out with any kind of needed”. It was hot sunny day I was so tired. I looked mad and I was mad so they all say a words. The next day they came to the game and play good as a team. My coach came to me and said “ I picked a really small captain that brought positive attitude to the team”. At that moment I felt proud and happy as the same time.…

    It’s game day, and the first time in twenty-three years that we might be able to defeat out school rivals, Turpin. But something didn’t feel like it should, after all it was the biggest day our team’s season. We had immense confidence in ourselves, being the higher raked state team, we expected to win this game then make a large tournament run. Little did we know that the rest of our season relied heavily on this game. Winning or losing this game would not end our season physically, but would emotionally ruin us, ultimately ending our season. The game began with a pleasant, almost soothing blow of the whistle and ended with the blood-curtailing screech of the referee’s dagger, sending shivers down my spin. The roar of our crowd stopped and…

    Every day, when Lauren got back from school she would go to her soccer ball and practice moves, juggling, and passing. A long time passed by, approximately six weeks. Lauren knew the school soccer team would be having a practice after school. She purposely missed the bus to go to their practice to show the coaches how much she has improved. When Lauren opened her locker to grab her things she saw a note. She opened it up, and it read, “just to let you know, the soccer ball isn’t magical anymore.” Lauren completely forgot! She didn’t know that the whole time she was using that magical ball. Lauren still did want to show the coaches her new skills, if she actually had any. When the team got outside Lauren found the coaches. She slowly walked…

    I woke before the sun had grazed the horizon, crept over and snagged my mom’s old mac laptop of the small cream nightstand. I opened it and let the harsh blue light illuminate my dark room, not expecting the glow to temporarily blind me. I quickly shut my eyes and fumbled around the keyboard until I had adjusted the brightness, and refocused onto the task at hand. Three days prior I had completed try-outs for my soccer team and today the results would be posted at 6. My alarm clock lay precariously next to my bed reading 5:45. After four attempts and misspellings, my quivering hands managed to find the tryouts results sheet. I checked the better team first, because why not be optimistic, and saw the names of my friends; Abby, Isabell, Jill, Theresa. But not mine. I must have checked that list ten…

    It was a chilly and cloudy night. Me and family were having some supper, and we just came back from a soccer try out. Until Suddenly, I see my dad from distance on the porch jumping up and down in excitement and joy. My father called me to the porch, so I whipped on my jacket, jumped into my slip ons and dashed to the porch. I thought my dad got hurt, but really, he just gave me his phone to read the email he received from DASC saying “ You have been invited by GIS (Global Image Sports) to play with the North American soccer team.” I knew this was the start of something extraordinary.…
