Being able to join the soccer team at Energy Tech has had a significant i’m on Juan’s high school experience. Juan explains that, “my participation in the soccer team helped me discover parts of myself that I had forgotten about. It allowed me to create new friendships with people who share the same passion for soccer as me. It allowed me to see what true leadership is, and it helped create a space where I felt free from stress and worries. It made me want to pursue my soccer goals again and I know it gave many people a reason to wake up everyday and fight for their goals and dreams. It helped shape discipline and responsibility not only in my life but in the lives of all my teammates."
