What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreShe loves learning new skills and cheering her teammates on. She loves being active and flipping around wherever she is.
She’s quiet about her motivation but we know she draws a lot of inspiration from her coaches; especially her tumbling coach. He has taught her so much about herself, trusting her body, learning how to harness her ADHD and brain and using it to her advantage.
I’m so proud of her for working through a mental block for the past year. Putting in the effort to overcome this obstacle. She also maintains good performance in school while keeping up with a tough practice schedule. She cheers her teammates on constantly and unconditionally, even staying at states last year to cheer on a teammate who was competing alone in her age bracket so she wouldn’t be alone. She’s the greatest sport I have ever met. Never once a tear over losing and humble when she wins
