Club Soccer
Playing soccer at the D1 level is something any little girl thinks about if she grows up playing soccer. I started playing at about age 5 and haven't stopped since. Living in Cache Valley was not the easiest place to find a quality soccer team to play for. I was never on much of a winning club team until my freshman year in high school. As I played on a less talented team we payed against a Denis Giles team and got demolished by them. After the game Denis came up to me and asked if I would like to join his team. That was the first time anyone had taken any interest in me and thought I was good enough to play with the best. Denis changed my life and transformed me into the player I always wanted to be. The off season between my freshman and sophomore year was the first time I got to work and train with his team. When I returned to my high school team the following fall my high school coach couldn't believe the difference. He said he had never seen anyone in all his years of coaching improve so much over one summer! And from then on playing for Denis only made me better. I'm not going to say I always loved going to practice and that I never complained because I'm not perfect. But you know you have to go anyway and in the long run your going to wish you never slacked at any practice and never wasted any time. You'll need all the extra work you can get! Enjoy it while is lasts. Some of my favorite soccer memories were with those girls on that team! And some of my best friends still today are from that club team! Don't ever waste a minute being unhappy at soccer!!!!!!!!!!
