As a former high school student and now 2nd year college student, I was able to balance my workload between soccer and school by incorporating good time management skills. I would set a certain time to complete my assignment by in order to make sure that I achieved good grades in my classes. On the field, I played 3 years of Varsity soccer and 6 years of club soccer where I learned important communication and team bonding skills. In my senior year of high school I was named the captain of the varsity, enabling to gain some experience in leading a team and setting an example to those younger than me.
