Transcript

Today, I am getting the opportunity to train with amazing coaches and players. I have a private today, so I will be able to ask my coach about how he wants me to play in the start of matches, and what I should do with my volleys.

I have an obligation to my parents, my coaches, and my future self to train with the same intensity as yesterday on my own. Pierre had to push me to get there and that should not happen. I will work hard today without having to be told.

My coaching voice will remind me that this process will help me understand who I am and what I can become. I understand that mistakes are a necessary part of growing and I will bounce back and come back more focused.
