Recommended: Impact of Sport Education to the students
I have played since elementary school, but in all those years, I have alway been a very average player. I would go from being one of the best on the golf team, to the girl that only gets put in the game if the team was either losing or winning by a substantial amount. Through this experience, I learned humility, as I accepted that I cannot always be the best. Finally, Track & Field taught, and continues to teach me the importance of teamwork.
“Unfortunately, Jack, there will not be many opportunities for you this year.” Seconds after being told I had made the varsity baseball team, I did not expect my coach to so bluntly tell me I would be spending more time watching the game than playing it. Our state ranked team had a pitching staff full of Division 1 commitments and future MLB draft picks, and I was being told I did not measure up. The bench became my best friend.
Presently in the sport of golf, golf fitness training has become an integral part of success at the professional level. The amateur is also becoming aware of the requirements, benefits, and essential needs for golf exercises conditioning the body relative to biomechanics of the golf swing. Unfortunately for many amateur players they are unaware of what type of physical conditioning is required to support the golf swing. The swing is one of the most intricate athletic actions to perform in sport today, and any error in timing, body position, or sequencing will result in an inefficient golf swing.

I was devastated since the tournament was two weeks away and there was no way I could play. My thoughts were troubled, but there was one idea I received, never say never. Therefore, I practiced the hardest I had in a while for those two weeks at my local golf course. By the time the day of the tournament arrived, I was ready. When we made it to Baltusrol Golf Club, I never saw anything like it.
My high school drill team director—Gina Rhoden—has impacted my life in a positive way. Through her advice and the example of her character she has inspired me to work hard to achieve my goals, to never be lazy, and to be more confident. Mrs. Gina puts in so much effort towards our drill team and all of her hard work and dedication is inspiring. Sometimes goals can seem unreachable, but Mrs. Gina has reassured me that the sky’s the limit. One of my goals in drill team is to be flexible and strong enough to kick my face.
The beginning of the golf season started off better than I expected. I played my first round better than I had played in a long time, and I even got an albatross which is a two on a par five. I was overwhelmed with excitement, but I learned to not brag and always stay humble about the achievements that I have made. This made me a better golfer
Last year I became captain on the Soccer Varsity team of my high school. Being captain isn’t just being the head of all the girls, but is doing the best for the team. My goal was to work as a team in and outside the field, and working together to win and have fun. But my conflicts with certain girls were getting in the way, because how can I expect them to do a certain thing if I’m not setting an example. I chose to talk to those girls, set things straight and set an example to my teammates.
My biggest golf role model, Matt Desper, is the best golfer I know. I’ve never met someone that is so talented with a club. Matt has always said, “You’re this close Brock, this close to being really good” He used to always joke around and say that I was a mental nut job in the head. I saw the evidence that he possessed something mentally that I didn’t. He has a video of both of our swings side by side on his phone.
Thank you for coming and watching me play in Florida. My team ended up tying for 9th out of 101 teams. Here is some more film from this past club season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMbViO88gjA I just had my first high school volleyball tournament up in the Wisconsin Dells we finished 2-1. My high school team doesn 't have a true setter
The smell of the air while I ran was surprisingly fresh, the cheering of the nonexistent crowd rang in my ears, the sense of numbness in my legs all stuck with me until I crossed that fated finish line. It was the first meet of the season, and I was sweating buckets. This was mostly due to the blazing summer heat but also due to the intense anxiety I was feeling. For that reason I came upon the starting line tense, with thoughts of doubt and worry on my mind. My worries were correct, as soon as I started the race intense dagger like pains crepy throughout my body.
Moreover, the challenge of finding a four-inch hole on a 6,000 yard golf course presents an idea that no other game has. Things can change in an instant. I never hit every shot perfect, but the one shot I do hit exactly how I want to is what keeps me coming back day after day. Nothing matches the feeling of catching a ball in the dead center of the clubface and watching that ball soar on the perfect line to your target – all as you stand in perfect balance, after completing a perfect, rhythmic swing. Nothing matches the feeling of pulling off a shot under the most intense of pressures.
Have you ever wondered what makes you the person you are today? For me, golf was the biggest thing that has changed my life. Golf led me to the new education and friends which made who I am today. Golf changed my life majorly and I am thankful for it. Three things that influenced who I am today: Education, Golf and Friends
I’ve been golfing since I was a little kid. I’ve experienced many highs and lows, and have created many friendships and memories playing the game I love. Golf can teach you many lessons, if you pay attention. One of the lessons I’ve learned is that it takes perseverance and hard work if you want to excel at something. I started hitting golf balls at the age of 2 with my dad and older brother.
The main goal I have in mind at this moment is to become a zero handicap golfer before I turn seventeen, my other goal is to get in a good college. To achieve my first goal I'm going to start practicing more and be more focused. Probably I'm going to practice Wednesday, Friday and at the weekends. Each practice must take at least a couple hours. I don't need to hit the further or better, to play a lower score you need to stop failing shots, and when failing, being able to make an up and down.
