Destiny's Story

My passion is volleyball.

In my freshman year, there were volleyball tryouts for my school. I was very interested so I tried out for the team. I made it on the team, but I wasn't as good as the other teammates due to having little experience in playing volleyball. During our games, I was barely played because I wasn't really good at the sport and didn't reach my coach's expectations. Learning that, I practiced more and improved on my spiking, receiving, and setting. In my sophomore year, I improved more and more, which led to more playing time. Out of our 12 games, we've won 10 games and lost 2 games. My passion for this sport has gotten stronger because I know I am able to improve as a volleyball player. Working with my teammates has also improved my social skills because it taught me that it was okay to ask for help.
