The high school experience is something that will forever dominate the psyche of most teenagers. It was an unforgettable time of fun, rebel-rousing, summer love, and parties. It was a time of warm summer days at the pool and chilly autumn nights, watching the football team and wondering where the party was going to be that night. School dances and hotel parties. Seems like all I can remember are the good times. But with all those good, fun moments as a teenager, there can be some challenges we can encounter. And one thing I had to face as a high schooler, and a lesson I learned as a result, is that coaches don’t always treat people the same way.
In my experience, when I was a freshman the soccer coach would tell me that I wouldn’t be good enough for varsity if I didn’t try to gain weight. But there was a girl who was in varsity and she weighed the same as me. Then I go on by trying to do my best and gain as much weight so they can move me up, but they never did until their last game. Then the following year the coach told me that I need to start acting like a captain. And so that’s exactly what I did by giving him feedback that can possibly help the team, and he goes on by saying that I was being rude and acting as if I’m the coach and started to tell me that I’m not the coach. Then a few weeks later one of the captains told him that so and so would be better off playing as a forward and he listened to her and not me when I tried to give him advice.
In the end, we did both grow from it and now we give each other feedback on how the team looks and how to get better. This experience made me realize that I have a voice and if that's not good enough, I'll show you what I am capable of doing on the field. This is who I am, I am someone who doesn’t give up, who see things other people can’t see for themselves, and someone who will give it her all no matter what other say. And at the end of the day, I will be the one who goes that extra step and follow my dreams no matter what.
