I spent the past thirteen years doing what I love, playing ice hockey. Playing hockey daily always been my routine since I was four years old. Also, the joy of hockey had taught me more than just the fundamental of the sport, it taught me incredible life lessons. I have learned to building and enhancing essential skills with the experience of participating in the sport. For me, playing hockey is equivalent to working hard with determination to succeed.
Four the past 4 years, in addition to attending to high school with honor and AP classes, I spent much of time playing hockey both Club and District High School League. Hockey is a tough and fast-paced team sport on ice, which required rigorous physical/mental self discipline and teamwork. Through

For as long as I can remember, lacrosse has been a necessity in my family. I began playing goalie in fifth grade. Naturally, my ability increased and my skills improved. I received compliments on and off the field. A few houses down from me lives my neighbor, who happened to be head coach of boys lacrosse team for my age group. At some point in the winter of sixth grade, he asked if would be I willing to attempt playing as a goalie for his team. Graciously accepting his offer, my family and I were excited, as I would be the only girl playing in an all boys league. On the other hand, I was slightly nervous due to the higher level of aggression and more powerful shots I would have to block. Nevertheless, I was happy to begin and began training
When most people hear the word hockey, they think about skating, ice, and a puck. What most people do not think about is running, the blistering heat, and a small orange ball, however, I do. That is because I play dek hockey, not ice, meaning that we run, and our season is never over. Playing hockey is my favorite thing to do, and I have so many fond memories. Some of those memories are, playing hockey at Bill’s Golfland, U.S.A. Ball Hockey Tryouts, and playing at Penn Hills Dek Hockey.
I have been involved in many activities throughout high school that have shaped me into the person I am today. These activities have exposed me to an immense group of different and diverse people. I’ve played hockey since age three, it is more than just a game. It is not only about playing hockey, it is about learning life skills that I will carry with me throughout the rest of my life. I have learned how to work as a team member no matter if things are going well or if they are not. You also build bonds between teammates throughout the years and make memories that will never be forgotten. A very big importance of the game of hockey is being able to represent my home city of White Bear Lake. Nothing is better than going out to represent our city in front of an arena
I have been playing ice hockey since I was seven years old. By age ten, I knew I loved being a hockey goalie more than anything else. I dedicated my time to achieve my goal of playing at the highest level possible. Over the years, I worked extremely hard to learn my position. I took private lessons,
Friday night rolled around, it was the game we had all been working so hard for. Knowing we were seniors, we knew it would be the end of the journey.
Sports play a very important role in my life ever since I could walk. My interests in playing sports began at the age of three as my parents signed me up for soccer, flag football, basketball, and lacrosse. First grade started my competitive edge as I began to play for travel teams in various sport tournaments. This competitive edge transferred from the sports field to the classroom having teachers and coaches helping me be the best I can be. Sports have continually well-shaped and defined my character by teaching me how to accept a win from working hard, also how a loss is an opportunity to learn and fix mistakes.
Probably one of the most important decisions I've made in my life happened this year. The decision was me , choosing whether i wanted to do drumline or play hockey. As a freshman going into the first year of highschool, it lead me to think of plenty of things. But one important fact that stuck out was me deciding if I wanted to pursue music or sports. As a freshman , I knew that I couldn't balance sports and marching band at the same time. Rehearsal for marching band happened everyday after school until 5 pm. I knew I couldn't do homework and study for tests with only 3 hours if hockey started at 9. So, I made the decision of choosing drumline over hockey. Not only would it help me balance my time doing homework, it would also help me on my
It all started when I got on the Ice. I thought It was going to be another hockey practice...but I was wrong. This practice would end with a bloody mess. Let’s just say, I'm glad that the other catch from the other team was a doctor. My friends and I were messing around in the locker room while we were getting ready for practice. I like getting ready for hockey practice it normally is fun, or I at least just try to have fun. If we do the drill wrong, we have to skate ten laps around the rank, but the bad thing is it is an olympic rank so it is bigger then are normally rank.
Fear: an unpleasant emotion caused by the notion that someone or something is perilous, liable to cause pain, or a threat.
The woman we see inside and out in Kate Chopin’s The Awakening is the pure embodiment of confusion. It certainly isn’t in her best interest to have a mind constantly engulfed in the unknown, but for Edna Pontellier, this is an enforced reality. While it may be hard to admit, Mrs. Pontellier is a hard-wired product of the society she has been placed in. It is flagrant enthusiasts and uncensored conversationalists that make up the Creole culture, not the lost soul of Edna Pontellier.
For thirteen years I have played the game of hockey. I have played hockey for more years in my life than I have without playing hockey, yet my career and favorite activity will soon come to an end. I have played with many different teams and many different players in my hockey career and I made sure to make memories with each and every moment. I have some of my best memories, as well as my worst while traveling for and playing hockey. Some teams have been great as well as the players, but the past three years have been the most memorable of them all.
SOI-The purpose of this creative piece of writing is an entry from one of our hockey games from tournament. I have tried to use a connection to compare battle or war to hockey, to make the story become more brutal and realistic. I have written in first person to show that it is in my perspective and what I recollect from the game.
Hockey. A sport I have always loved ever since I was a kid. It was when my dad had taken me to an open ice skate when my hockey life began. I had my first pair of skates as a present when I was four years old. I never really knew of the sport at the time, but now I was able to expirence it. No one was present on the ice as I entered the rink. The cold of the ice ran down my back as I took my first steps on. The cold didn’t stop me though. As I stepped upon the ice, I had a feeling of relief. Hockey is what let me go fast. Always have I been the fastest kid in my class and hockey let me expand on what I loved to do. One stride at a time I went, until I was able to glide upon the ice. My blades of my skates sunk into the ice like a lion tearing at its prey. As the frost beat against my face, I soon realized that I was able to skate. Even though it was all fuzzy in my memory, I remember feeling all types of joy rush all throughout my body. It was the first sign of potential in hockey. It was a first omen.
On the same token, some of my most meaningful achievements and experiences have come in officiating hockey. For the past seven years, I have been officiating hockey games across the country, and have learned many valuable skills. Over the course of those seven years, I have succeeded in many aspects of officiating, and have a dream of refereeing in the NHL one day. Many of the skills I have honed during my officiating career will directly translate to and assist in my future career in sales.
