Personal Narrative: The Day I Play Football
My brother always wanted me to play football and he has always played football. When I was in 3 rd grade he told me that I'm going to start having to practice, so mostly every day we'd go outside and practice for a while, we would play catch and learn plays. it would be a fall or summer or anything, he would always come outside and play football. I have improved a lot and I would say that he has done a lot for me. one day I came home from practice and he was sick and he still went outside in the cool, foggy day and practiced with me.
He told me all of his plays that he learned when he played at the same school and field I did. I can remember every Friday when I would get home from school and he’d be at his game and my mom would come pick me up from work and take me to the game. It was a fall day and the crowd would be cheering and little kids would be running around playing tag and playing king of the hill on the dirt hill by the fence next to the baseball field. We would sit there and watch him all night whether it was cold, raining or really windy, we would watch him. I remember one day we went to his away game, it was about 1 hour away, and the wind was like 20 miles per hour and me and my mom would have 6 blankets on watching him. I was always excited waiting for her to come home to get me

Even though he lives far away, when he comes home he will practice and still play games and other stuff even though he just turned 24 and has a family and he has a daughter named Waverly. He will always be there for me when I need help with football or not, he is just the best brother anyone could ask for in the world. He pushes me really hard and I don't like, it but it will always make me a better player and I know when we get older I will thank him for what he's done and how how he goes out of his way does things for

    I thank my dad for bringing out the skill and mindset of an athlete. I not only use my competitive nature on the field but I also utilize it in the classroom. When I was younger, I would despise the person who got a higher grade than me. I wouldn't actually hate them, I would hate that they beat me. But when I would get the highest grade in the class I would feel like I had won the championship football game.…

I am very thankful for her.…

    I would go to the football field and go into the box announcers seat with a crossbow, bottle of water, protein bar, boards and a walkie talkie to respond to the other look outs.

    Twenty years ago she came into my life and because of her I am a better person. If not for her I never would have been so dedicated and excited to play sports. Thanks to Aim my life revolved around sports and this allowed me to release my frustrations and be a part of team. She once said to me “Teddy your team is an extension of your family and family is all any of us have.” She was the best member any family could ever have and I am honored to call her my aunt. Before she officially became my aunt she was my mentor, my coach and my biggest fan. From her I learned to take pride in my actions, to do my best and to never take people for granted. One time she took me to one of our many wrestling meets and I had to wrestle a girl. I was 13 years old and had been raised to never hurt a female. The girl beat me by points because I couldn’t go all out and I was extremely embarrassed. She consoled me and assured me that it was just a fluke. Then later that day I had to face the…

There wasn’t much lighting, so it was always darker than outside, unless it was night. Kendrick was a tall kid that loved football. His parents could barely afford the equipment he needed.…

    My first goal was to complete a 200 pound bench press. I selected this goal because I wanted more power in football. My second goal was to do 75 consecutive push ups. I chose this goal because push ups are a great exercise to increase your bench press. My third goal was to get really cut and lower my body fat percentage. I increase cardio and changed to a healthier diet to achieve this goal. My fourth goal was to weight 150lbs. I chose this goal because having some extra weight will help me on the football field. I tried to make these goals reasonable and with a lot of hard work I was able to achieve 2 of them.…

I was given the opportunity to dress varsity as a freshman and being around that atmosphere, being on a successful team was intoxicating, especially to me at such a young age.

I made it my goal from that year on, I was going to give everything it took over the next three years in order to be the best football player possible.…

    Last but not least this picture means a whole lot to me. Number one because he look just like me when I was playing at his age, but also it also shows how he is following in my footsteps.
