My daughter is the example of if you want it bad you work for it, and practice is never over. She practices 5-6 times a week.

The challenge of advancing her skills, she hopes to be seen by a college or even the Olympics one day to show that woman can do this sport as well.
Patricia is inspired by her younger sisters, she hopes to show them that no matter how hard things get we just have to never quit. We only fail when we quit is what her mother teaches her.
Patricia had the opportunity to play for a club ball team, unfortunately it was a distance from us. They offered to pay her fees, and she didn't need to show up to practice they would send her plays. However, after thinking about, it and see what that would look like, she voted against it. "How can I just walk on to a team and be a starter, that's something I have to earn" at that moment, was the proudest as a parent. She didn't take the easy road to get what she wanted.
