CLUB BASKETBALL

I’ve been part of my club basketball team since 8th grade, and it has become a vital part of my routine. What I value most about basketball is how it unites people, not just for the game itself but through our shared dedication to team improvement. The sport requires coordination, strategy, and trust among players, which creates a distinct sense of teamwork. Being involved in the club has helped me develop as a player while also building strong bonds with my teammates through the challenges and achievements we've experienced together.

I’ve been on my school’s varsity basketball team for the last two years, and it has been a crucial part of my high school journey. As a newcomer, it offered me a chance to meet students from various grades, fostering friendships and helping me feel more connected to the community. Competing at the varsity level has also motivated me to enhance my skills and play a significant role in the team’s success.

Outside of school, I’ve taken a part-time job tutoring middle school students in math and science. This role has allowed me to provide academic assistance while also honing my teaching and communication skills. It has been particularly rewarding, as it enables me to fund my community initiatives, like Nritya Pragati, allowing me to pursue my passions while giving back to the next generation of learners.
