Join the CompetitionI love competing and being challenged. I’ve always played with older girls, so I’ve had to learn how to work harder, stay confident and not be afraid of failure. I love being in the circle when the game is on the line, but I also love hitting and helping my team win. Mostly, I love being with my teammates, traveling, making memories and getting better every time I step on the field.
My parents and coaches inspire me the most because they’ve always believed in me and pushed me to be better. They’ve taught me that talent only gets you so far and that how hard you work matters more. I also look up to the older players I’ve gotten to play with. Playing 16U and 18U at 13 has shown me where I want to be someday and motivates me to keep working until I get there.
Being able to compete against older girls and hold my own!
