Fort Leboeuf Soccer Team: 2024-2025

For my junior and senior seasons on the soccer team, I was the team's speaking captain. On our soccer team, captains are appointed at the beginning of the season via a team vote. I was then appointed the role of speaking captain by the coaches. This meant I was responsible for communicating with the referees, coaches, and other match officials on behalf of our team, both before and during the game. As a team captain, I was expected to set an example for other players, manage interpersonal conflicts on the team, promote team unity, and guide the team where needed. One of my personal goals as a team captain was to bridge the feedback gap from players to coaches that I had noticed in my previous years. By working with my fellow team captains, we were able to open communication with the coaches and allow the team members to give feedback on practices and games. In my final season, our soccer team won its first playoff game in six seasons, opening the door for future success of the program.
