After attending the soccer camp I have learned so many new things, I’ve gained a lot of confidence within myself at this camp as well. I made great friends and and had so much fun playing with other people who want to improve like me. I’ve learned to always try to improve and never compare yourself to other people because you’ll grow as an individual if you focus on yourself and not others. I feel as if I’m ready to try out going to soccer teams that I felt I wasn’t good enough to join. This camp has helped me out a lot with my skills in soccer and with communicating with different people. I feel as if I improved so much and that’s honestly amazing. I’m so grateful to have gone to this camp because it taught me so many things and I got to meet so many different people.

I am attending the Nike soccer camp in UC Santa Cruz. I am thrilled to be going because I get to practice and learn new skills in soccer, also I am able to meet new people. This camp will help me because it will expand my knowledge in soccer so that in the future I will have high hopes in getting into the teams I want, this will help me gain confidence within myself so that in the future I will have a better understanding on if I want to continue in college . What I look forward on doing is putting myself out there and meeting new people so that I can make friends. I hope that after this camp I can meet new people with the same interest and desires as me so that optimistically, I can find more of myself but mainly to gain self confidence with new skills I have in soccer so that mentally I'll be ready to want to pursue my dream and that is becoming a professional soccer player.
