Personal Narrative: My Talent In Soccer

Soccer is a game where nothing is predictable. Soccer is a game that’s been around since the eighteenth century and has a different effect on many athletes’ lives, including mine. My sophomore year of high school is over and I was finally over with a long season of high school soccer. Returning to my team of five years I was excited to go back and am comfortable with. Right as I approached my team I saw an unfamiliar face and instantly got intimidated. Trying my hardest to avoid him it seemed as if every time I looked over he was examining my every move. Of course that day of practice was a series of conditioning test to see if we were really doing our fitness assignments over the break. The drills consisted of a pattern of sprint got dragged out all along to eighty yard

Soccer’s been nothing but good to me, providing those once-in-a-lifetime opportunities some may only dream of. From competing in nationwide tournaments,

Every student athlete dreams of playing the sport they love in their future, whether it is in college or even to go play as a professional. I have played other sports in my life, but soccer has always been my favorite sport. I decided to drop every other sport I was in to play soccer. It was a pretty hard decision because I really did like playing other sports, but I really wanted

I learned to love soccer at young age because of the thrill that it came with and the future I saw myself. Soccer was my way out of stress and all my problems, it has help me escape when I need it the most. All my life my goal was to play professional and to have a job that I love to do but to also support and spoil my family in anyway needed no matter the price. My goal still carries on till this day but after the accident that I had at a tournament that sent me to the hospital I have been nervous ever since. If it's one thing my mother taught me it's to never give up so that accident won't stop me from accomplishing my

The sport of soccer was what motivated me to do better in everything I did. I had played every position on the field except for one up until high school when everything changed; our keeper had quit and the only person we had left was incredibly untalented. My coach at the time asked if any one was willing to step up to fill the position. It was a cloudy and

Hey Mohawks! This past Thursday was senior night for soccer. I would of never imagined it coming so fast, it seems like the season started last week. Words cannot describe how sad I am that I only have a few more games left. As we closed out our season Tuesday we are looking forward to the post season. We are hoping to upset Valley View next Monday. We faced them earlier in the season and the results were not what we wanted. I am confident that we can come out this time ready for what they are going to throw at us. I hope everyone has a good weekend and thanks for

“Go Spartans Go!” screamed the crowd as we took the field. I felt nervous, with sweat dripping from my face and my hands feeling moist. The moment I took my position, I felt destined to be the best player on the field and thought to myself, “I can do it.” It was my first start for my career as a varsity soccer player for Brookfield East. I wanted to make every opportunity count. I could smell the scent of the freshly cut grass and the aroma of the concession stand. The referee blew his whistle and we were off to the races. The first 45 minutes went by in a heartbeat and I was exhausted. 5 minutes after halftime, the unthinkable happened. As I was sprinting for the ball, my knee gave out and twisted beneath me. I fell in an instant and I felt

The feeling of defeat is one like no other. It was my freshman year, and I had just made varsity soccer for Vestavia Hills. The goal for the team: 7A state champions.

Chasing the ball down the field to soon hear a loud crack followed by silence.

For running I could be in good shape and do excellent in PE.In the future,I could be in a lot of running meets and I could be famous.Writing could help me in my ELA class and in the future I could be an author and write amazing books and movies.Water polo could make me strong so I could take care of myself and I could probably be an official water polo player.Reading

Soccer and a park, throw in some friends and it magically becomes fun. I can tell you this without a doubt because I did this myself on Friday. When I got to Emerald Glen, I saw that Vince, Justin, their dad, and Matthew were already there playing soccer on the grass field by the skate park. I went ahead and joined them, and we did some simple offense and defense drills. After a few minutes of that, Vince and I played a weird little game that seemed like a soccer version of volleyball while Justin, his dad, and Matthew kicked the ball around to each other. While we were playing our soccer volleyball game, me and Vince talked about random little things like how there’s a Fawaz A and Fawaz B, But there isn’t a Fawaz C or D. Later, we took turns at the goal while the others kicked.

Many people around the world have their own unique talent,my talent that identifies is by the way I play sports. Even though sports might not mean much to others, they are very important to me. The sports I like to do in high school are Cross country and Soccer. I started doing cross country just a few years ago because I wouldn't do anything. I would run for my school, but it wasn't my favorite sport. Since was little girl, I started playing soccer as my first sport.

No, I do not speak Spanish. I didn’t “hop over a fence” to get into the United States, and it may come as a shock, but I have no intention of becoming a professional soccer player. The majority of my life, I have been subjected to preconceived assumptions of what a woman of my race should be like. Having the last name Gonzalez, and bearing the complexion of someone of Latin decent has influenced others to believe that they know exactly what type of person I am. It is for this reason, that I do not only identify myself as a proud Latina, but more importantly as an advocate for multiculturalism and diversity.

One day May 17, 1977 one wonderful women gave birth to a baby girl at noon. I was literally born with the worlds biggest passion for soccer. I was living with a soccer life. It even in my blood. For example both my dad and uncle were soccer players while my dad is scoring goals my uncle had the most important job, watching all the games. I wouldn't even be alive if soccer wasn't in my life or even Cristiano Ronaldo.

Iv'e always been a fanatic of soccer. My dream since i was little was to be a proffessional soccer player. Im still trying to make this dream come true.
