“Sports to me is working with your team and/or group and working with people younger and older than you. think sports is an energizing thing and you can hang out with your friends or even meet new people. I love sports I’ve played a lot. Sports is a very fun way of getting exercise and I think it’s fun. I think I deserve a scholarship because for me being an older sister to three younger siblings, we don’t have a lot of money. A lot of people say I’m good at sports and I have been getting better and practicing more. I’ve been told that playing sports can help me go to college someday.”
