As I was younger, I didn't have the right people to guide my way through school. The ones that I thought were going to be there for me, ended up not. It would mess up myself mentally by not focusing on my academics. The only way I could express my feelings were through sports. Playing sports helped me release all the fustrations that I've been going through out my life. Now that I'm in high school, I have learned and being able to manage both my education and sports at the same time.
I have been playing sports for a very long time. I have been playing basketball, softball, volleyball, football, swimming, and also surfing since I was 4 years old. While playing those sports, I have faced different injuries. Some examples of my injuries that I have had were a concussion, 2 broken wrists, a torn MCL in my knee, & many more. I have come to realize that I would want to learn more about these injuries and how you could prevent them from happening.
In the future, I would like to help our athletes so that they are have the opportunity to exceed in the higher level of the sport that they play. I would want to study the most common type of injuries that most athletes injure so that they are able to heal faster because I would know what to do. I would want to be the person that I can say honestly that I help that athlete to where he or she is now at.
