What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

The challenge of getting better, the opportunity to learn something and the importance of not giving up. The happiness that he gives himself everytime he stepped on the court.

Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

The people who believe in him specially his family who reminds him that positive attitude can take him far. The coaches who inspire him to work harder and his teammates who teach him to become a better player.

What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

It’s his hard work and believing himself. The dedication and passion. Stepping in the court with confidence reminds me on how he has grown not just an athlete but a young man.
