Counting down the seconds in a crowded dark hallway, listening behind doors to the song Welcome to the Jungle blasting in the gymnasium mixed with the sounds of the crowds roaring. The only thoughts going through everyone's head, is that this might be the last time we ever play together again. As soon as the song gets to the que we run out of the hallway under a tunnel made of arms, running into the moment that can make it or break it.

One lovely afternoon I was at my indoor soccer game. I was in an indoor league with some of my friends and we were tearing every team we played. That day we were going to play against an academy team, which have very good players.I had arrived about two minutes before the game. I was pretty late because I had gone to go eat before with my brother. So because of that I didn’t start and I wasn’t warmed up either. Nathan, my coach was like “Hey man did you go sew your clothes?,” in a jokingly was because I was late. The game had begun now and it was already intense. It was back to back If I do say so. The first half was an exciting one as it was all tied up two to two. I had played about half of the half. Now came the second half, and later on I went on the pitch. Some kid and I jumped up into the air to win the ball. We both did, and when I fell down, I guess I landed on my hand the wrong way. I felt a sudden pain on my hand. My wrist was all jacked up. It was horrendous as I looked down at my hair in shock as It looked like the top of mountains.I couldn’t feel my hand, It hurt quite a lot when i attempted to move it. My teammates, the opponents, my coach, the referee, and my brother all gathered around me to see what had happened. I wasn’t crying or anything but I sure wanted to. Actually I really did haha. My brother questioned “ oh dang man, you good?,” and well I just looked at him in pain, I didn’t know what to say. When the ambulance arrived at the

Sports are a popular pastime among all ages and types of people. People not only participate in them for fun, but also for money, physical fitness, rush of competition, and for many other personal reasons. Playing sports is especially common among young people in schools. Athletics are great and enjoyable for many reasons, but there can be a point where sports participation can go too far and become negative for children and adults. Sports specialization for young people is an increasing trend that results in sports having a negative impact on individuals and society.

Twelve years ago my mother enrolled me into cheerleading. Cheerleading has truly impacted my life, every day for 3 hours we have practice leading up to major competitions. We are given extra responsibilities, go through training to stay fit, meeting academic grade requirements to participate, show up for games and practices and take the sport seriously. I uphold a enormous amount of credit to my coaches over the past years, they never give up on their team no matter what the cost is. You have to have true compassion and respect for you and your team to be a cheerleader, its a team there is no i in team. I continue to work hard at all i do to keep a good reputation, keep my high morals, and standards at all times, be prideful in my work ethic,

When hearing the words soccer, volleyball, basketball, track, and dodge ball, for most, these activities will transport them back to a time when they were positioned in a straight line pressed shoulder to shoulder with their classmates like sardines in a can, waiting to get selected by one of the team captains. Some may have been the first players picked; others may have been the last. However, there is more at stake than who is chosen and in which order. A larger question exists and that is the competitive nature of high school and collegiate athletics. A deeper understanding of high school and collegiate athletics programs can reveal the hidden and unconscious truths intertwined with a competitive environment.

Soccer. fast moving, strategy, competitive, I loved those aspects in the game. In the month of March, when all the soccer tryouts began, I decided to try out for an older team which was 2 years older-my brother's team- just for fun. I went out on the day of the trial and surprisingly, I made the team. Feeling as if I had won the million dollar lottery, filled with excitement, on the side with fear because there were boys who were enormous and strong on my team. The only reason they were bigger, because I was 2 years younger.

“This is the movement towards improvement,” I thought while hitting a muddy, stained ball. I am squinting my eyes to look through the walls of gray fog covering my target ahead. I can smell the lush, green grass under my feet. I hear the tiny birds chirping in the tall Monterey Cypress trees above. It is just another calm Saturday playing golf on the mushy grass of San Francisco. I could have fished, balled, or skateboarded, but I decided to come here instead. This is because it is a special hobby unlike any other. Golf helped shape my personality, and disciplined me both physically and mentally. This motto was also inspired by golf, which helped me get through many challenging times. This is my golfing story.

Spending months upon months, week after week, days, hours and seconds, all for one little sport. The sport that fills my heart and love so deeply, cheerleading. Not the school sideline girls that yell and kick, but competitive cheer. In a competitive cheer routine, a team must be able to continuously flip across the floor, jump as fast as rabbits, launch people into the air while still managing to keep them safe, and be sassier than a seven-year-old pageant girl dancing - all of it jam packed into 2 minutes and 30 seconds. It looks like a piece of cake reading it right now and watching it too, but it isn’t. Numerous people have argued about whether cheer is or isn't a sport to me, but that doesn't matter to me. All that matters is having that opportunity to cheer. In my life, competitive cheerleading is the biggest impact on my identity - now and forever.

As I opened my eyes on an early Saturday morning, I immediately had butterflies in my stomach. “Today is my first cheer competition.” I thought about this all morning as I was getting ready. Everything had to be perfect in order for me to walk out the door ready to show the world my cheerleading routine. It was an absolute crazy morning. The hair, the makeup, the uniform, and the white cheer shoes. I never realized till then how much work it actually was just to get, “the look” of a cheerleader. Glitter was covering my eyelid while my hair was perfectly curled in a ponytail with my bow way bigger than my head. The whole way to my competition which was at the Deltaplex in Grand Rapids, Michigan, I listened to my cheer song over and over again

People have always loved to play games. The human race has created hundreds of thousands of games to entertain themselves and to compete with one another. The most beloved games are those of physical sports. One of these sports, that has become a worldwide phenomenon, is the game soccer. The entire world gathers every four years to send out their best team, and to see which country is the ultimate champion.
