Being in the school's basketball team since year 6 has better helped me understand my body. Junior year was my most demotivated season. I learnt that being a coach has a huge impact. My old coach was able to motivate us and give us all time to improve in the areas we needed, however the new coach never focused on people that needed help and just expected us to be able to do certain moves without ever practicing it. There was a tournament in Vietnam and the coach didn't put me in for most of the games but for one of the games she put me in I showed her what I was capable of and after that she started putting me in more often but it still wasn't as much as before. However, this taught me that I need to be more opened minded and be able to adapt. If I can improve on these skills it will benefit me in my future.
