Personal Narrative: My Passion For Soccer

My passion for soccer has been around ever since I started playing at six years old. Soccer has always been my favorite sport I have played and I played all four of the main sports. All the great experiences and bad experiences has actually shaped me to be who I am, and most people don’t think it affects you personally but it helps you become more responsible and smart. My first time i stopped a goal from happening at the age of six was when I knew I wanted to be a defender. My dad always says defense wins games and i wanted to help win games. My first years of playing, I played Parks and Recreation soccer all the way up until the age of ten. When I had just turned ten i was playing in an indoor league for fun when one of my friends dad’s and also my parks and
My final season they did an age change where nobody could play with kids born in a different year than you, and i always played with the older kids. When the season started, I had a whole new coach and a whole new team and I liked them, but we won only one game and I didn’t want my last years of travel to be bad. After the season I made a decision to switch clubs for the first time and I went to a place called Phoenix. In tryouts the coach told me i was already on the team because he had scouted me before and wanted me. I got picked to go on a college tour which was where a team consisting of U18’s and U19’s went to five colleges and tour them and play there actual college soccer team. Our first game we played Emory and Henry and we beat them 2-1 and it was the first time in phoenix history that they beat a college team and first time any team scored and that was all in my first official game. That week might have been the best week of my life and I will never forget it ever. Also I received my first college soccer offer from Emory and Henry. just finished my season last weekend and we ended up placing in second despite all the injuries we had this year. That is my whole story
