“When I’m faced with a challenge, I have to keep going because hard work pays off.”

Madison Dee: “I like to play soccer, I’ve been playing since I was 8 or 9, I can’t remember. I started because I had these 2 best friends and they inspired me to play. They actually moved to Barca[Barcelona]  to continue their soccer, so that kinda inspired me. I started playing soccer later than others but I feel like I have improved a lot. I usually play three times a week, but this week it’s Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I’m interested in soccer because it’s a very fun and competitive sport, but nowadays it’s the only type of communication I get because of COVID. Soccer has taught me to work hard and play harder, and my motivation while playing soccer is hard work pays off. I want to keep practicing until I get to a higher level.”
