VOLLEY BALL

During the fall season, I joined my school's volleyball team although I am an athletic person. Unfortunately, I have always been bad at playing most of the sports. But, this year I decided to challenge myself and become part of the Bearkats.

For two months, I had practice three times a week at my school, but since I wasn't skilled, my sister trained me during the weekends. I though that the more I practice, the better I will get. In fact, I definitely improved a lot and saw a huge progress, along with my sister, my coaches, and my team mates. 

My biggest challenge was "serving" because it is a step that requires a lot of force and precision: I remember spending most of my time at the park serving. For some reason, I couldn't serve for over a month, and therefore told my coach that I didn't want to serve during games. This step made me want to give up and quit, but also continue and prove myself that I can do it. Thankfully, I was determined to get that ball over the neck, therefore during our last volleyball game, I asked my coach to let me serve so I wouldn't have regrets later on. It was a really scary moment to be honest, but I am so glad that I challenged myself. 

Now that the season is over, I am only practicing with my sister times to times, to further improve and have a better outcome next season!
