Should Baseball And Golf Be A Small Child?

When I was younger, I was always interested in sports. I was usually at the top of my class in sports. I always dreamed that I would be the best at what I do. Even though things seemed hard, I would try my hardest even if things looked bleak. Football was my game and I played to the best of my ability.

Well for me, football is my top favorite sport. When I was in school, I had a problem with authority, and teachers would often make me mad. I tried hard to control my aggression, frustration, and anger. I jumped into drugs and cigarettes to fights and gangs. Because nothing I tried worked, I went to football tryouts. I felt happy and excited for the first time in a long time; I eventually got on the field and ran and ran.

Growing up with a big family, sports have been a central part of each one of our lives. All four of my older sisters were involved in high school athletics as well. This allowed us to share something in common and was a great opportunity to bond with each other. No matter what hardships we faced, sports were there to help us come together. For example, when my dad was unemployed for two years he was able to come and watch all of mine and my sisters games. It really brought us closer as a family because we were always there supporting each other. Eventually, my parents no longer were able to pay the house bill with my dad being unemployed. Our house was then foreclosed and we had no other choice but to move. We moved into the town of Capac by the high school. Times were tough and money was limited, but we still made the most of our time together. We would all go to the softball fields at the school and play softball or a big game of football. Sports gave us something to bond over our whole lives and I’ll always cherish

Sports have been a huge part of my life ever since I was about five years old. It has impacted my life so much. The biggest challenge that I faced was with my injuries during basketball and soccer season. I recently had to quit soccer and basketball, which was difficult for me.

Practices continued. Nothing changed; except for me. I kept going, I didn’t let them win and I didn’t quit. Now the moment: the first game. I wasn’t as nervous as I thought I’d be. I felt that since I had made it so long already with dealing with the three that I could get through anything. I can honestly say that for my first time really performing I couldn’t have done better. I realized I really can do anything. Things didn’t get too much better, but I think they realized it

Long road trips, winning a tournament, making a game winning tackle, starting your first ever varsity game. Football gave me some of the best memories in my life, one’s that I will get to look back on to tell my kids, my grandkids, my wife. Playing my last ever highschool football game opened up my eyes to realize how fast life can go, and to never take something for granted. Memories football has given me gives me the ability to look at things differently, to remeber things that people have done for me. Football ever since I was a little kid was a learning block. Learning how to work as a team, how to be there for eachother, how to bring someone up that hass fallen. Those are just some things football has taught me which I will carry for a

Football is a game of passion, a time when nothing else matters and the only thing that matters is going out there having fun and fighting for the guy next to you. Football has always been something that I loved and had a wild passion for. I’ve made friendships and memories to last a life time and I can always be grateful that football did that for me. Now of course I’ve had some bad memories during football as well, I remember walking out of the film room on the last day of spring ball and having Coach Antle grab me and say “Gage, I think I want to try you at a new position, I want to put you at defensive end. We need you more there and we think you can really excel there.” I remember being so furious, I had played linebacker ever since I could remember and now the last day of spring ball my senior year everything was about to change.

I have always loved sports ever since I was a little kid. Some of my earliest memories are of playing soccer with my friends on a wet, cold spring day or hitting a ball off of a tee and feeling like it went a mile, when in reality it only went about fifty feet. Even to this day I still can never get enough of sports. I get about four weeks off out of the entire year where I’m not technically in a sport, but I’m still always practicing and trying to get better because that’s the only way I know. I love everything about sports: the friendships, the competition, the passion, the atmosphere, the unity. Sports are one of my true loves and they consume my life. It is this strong desire that I have for sports that has driven me to want to pursue a

Despite the fanfare that comes with the game of football, I consider myself to be very lucky to have been exposed to the game at such a young age. Football is all about teamwork, where as some sports are more individual based. It is not like baseball where a player can hit a homerun and save your chances. In order for a football team to work, not only do all 11 players on the field have to work together, but the team must prepare to be successful well before the ball is first snapped. You always hear how football teaches young men to have a work ethic or to be better teammates, and while this true, for me football was about becoming a better person.

I arrived at practice with my shoes laced, hair pulled back, and the mindset that I was unstoppable. I could play against every member of my team and come out the victor on any given day. It was the first day of practice that week, and challenge matches were scheduled to begin. The team went through our daily shuffle of drills, conditioning, and running to prepare for what was lying ahead. While warming up with my friends, I felt great, talking about homecoming, boys, and a variety of irrelevant events. I felt ready. The odds were in my favor and nobody could stop me.

Sports have always been a necessary component in my life due to all the lessons they have taught me over the

It all started when I was about three years old when my good friend Anthony Williams and I became friends when he ran his bike into my sand box. Football has been an event in my life since I was three years old and it still is today. “The key to life is not what life gives to you but what you take from life. It’s not how life treats you but how you treat life. You have a choice in life. You can either thrive or survive.”_ Coach London. Football has made me into the person I am today, hard working, and determined.

We were willing to work as much as necessary to achieve this goal. Sometimes the practices were so strenuous that I would immediately fall asleep in the car as older members drop me off from practice. My mom would question me if it was too tough. There was one time after practice, I could not even bare to stand up without having someone to assist me. As much as it was burdened to me to make it end well, I had to give it everything I had, no matter the

Dating back to my early childhood; football at the time was my only love. I breathed, slept and ate football. It started off as just a friendly hobby around my neighborhood up until my tenth-birthday when I joined a little league football team. Over the years I continued to play, it got even more exciting for me when my friends from the neighborhood start joining the team as well. Things suddenly changed for me moving forward into my high school career. Although this was once a fun stress reliever it was becoming the only thing that stressed me out.

My passion for the game of football went undiscovered until my senior year. I’ve played football for as long as I can remember. From playing flag football in third and fourth grade all the way up to my senior year of highschool, it has always been a part of my life. I always found myself doing something football-related, whether it be playing it with friends, watching it on TV, or playing it on the PlayStation. To me, football is a way of bonding with friends and family. This sport brings you closer as a team, and it’s a way of making memories and friendships that will last a lifetime.
