Team Sports are more than a hobby to me. They are where you meet some amazing people. Where you become family with your teammates. Where you cry, and laugh, and scream!Team Sports, to me, are something that I can do to not only use my athletic talents, but to learn teamwork and perseverance. I learn so much from the sports I play. My coaches not only teach me the basics of the sport but focus on my individual growth. My teammates continue to encourage me and help me grow as an athlete. They also help me in other ways as well. They teach me how to be the best teammate I can be and how to encourage others. Since this year has been hectic and crazy with all changes that we have had to adjust to, I think my perspective has changed to thankful and grateful. Not thankful or grateful in the way that we possibly aren’t going to play our favorite sports, but thankful and grateful for the school staff that has made it possible for us to do our workouts and get back to where we want to be. Thankful and grateful for my coaches that are finding ways through all of this to still push us to be better. Thankful and grateful for my teammates who continue to encourage each other even though we aren’t able to be together. COVID-19 hasn’t gotten in the way of the encouragement and help that sports gives me. It’s just altered a little.
