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

He enjoys challenging himself, learning new skills, and getting better every time he plays. He loves the excitement of the game, being part of a team, and spending time with his teammates. Most of all, he loves having fun, competing, and making memories doing something he truly enjoys.


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

His family inspires him the most, especially his parents, because we are always there encouraging him, supporting him, and reminding him to never give up. His coaches and teammates also inspire him to work hard, be a good teammate, and keep improving both on and off the field.


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

One of my proudest moments is watching him continue to show up and give his best, even when things are difficult. He has faced challenges, wins, losses, and even injuries, but his determination never changes. Seeing him get back up, keep working, and continue loving the game makes me incredibly proud. I’m proudest when I see him walk off the field knowing he gave it everything he had, no matter what the scoreboard says.
