When you think about sports,
DREAMS REFLECT what generally comes to mind

is a bunch of players running
0wecAt around a court or field trying

to kill each other to win, right?
Wrong. Being a part of a sports
~ team is about so much more

than winning. Of course every
Tears player wants to win but improv-
ing themselves and reaching the
goals they set for themselves

is a lot more important. Most
players feel that in order to play
the sport, you have to have a goal. Otherwise, you have nothing to strive for and you have
nothing to motivate you. Having a goal and motivation is key when playing sports. Win-
ning is an awesome feeling, but achieving the goals you have set on your own and work-

ing hard to achieve them, that is an even better feeling. •
