In regards my application for the B Sc Sports Therapy Program I
would like to insert my personall statement in order to express
the reasons I am very keen to apply to this Academic Program. One of the most important things that makes me wanted to study therapy through sport and sport exercises has started in a very tough moment of my life in the last year as a teenager football player I suffered a injury that ended my dream of becoming a real football player.Being very decided to come back on the field, I started to search more informations about sports recovery reading a lot of books about training methods,anatomy,biomechanics, psychology and personal development.I was very interested to find out more about that ,thing which led me to be a volunteer at a medical recovery clinic (Fiziopraxis, Brasov, Bd Garii nr. 30 A, Postcode 500218). The experience I earned from this volunteer activity,it helped me very much to improve my comunication abilities and relationship skills with patients and people around them.During volunteer activity, I learned about very complex programs of medical recovery such as :Kabat,Klapp,Williams,specific programs of physical impairments but also programs with required exercises in athletes recovery.I was very excited to learn how to help people so I have joined a massage course and complementary therapies on a two months period in order to study much more and put in practice things I learned from volunteer activity.
I have played football for 2 teams from my city ,starting with
Astra Ploiesti (actually Astra Giurgiu )at ten years old ,winning the national title with, having the opportunity to participate in an international tournament in Croatia.After this,I started to play for Petrolul Ploiesti winning 3 national titles.Those two teams I have played for,are the top teams from Romania:Astra Giurgiu managed to reach in to the competition groups and the other ,Petrolul Ploiesti stopping in preliminaries,both of them winers of Romanian Cup in the last editions. In high school I participated in various extracurricular activities - crosses and marathons that promoting sport,the significance of sports for health and regularly practising.Two of most beautiful crosses I have participated where on Bucharest International Marathon and Skyrun,one running stairs marathon having a charity goal,held in Sky Tower from Bucharest, highest building from Romania. The thing that I have performed football performance during 8 years,helped me to improve my personality,teaching how to team work but also on my self ,to be punctual,organised and how to think to the future, imposing my goals as high. My hobbies are: running,swimming,friend games such as FIFA,watching my favorite team Chelsea London-playing on the field,even if my favorite player is Christiano Ronaldo. One important thing that has to do with this football player and strenghtened my conviction about sport science was the documentary named Ronaldo ,tested to the limit,,in which I
saw how the abilities of athletes are tested ,such as
strenght,skills,precision,with the help of science aiming to improve all this abilities. Participating to this course ,I think that I will learn and I will discover more informations about sports science and I will have the required experience for my future job.After finishing this course ,I will not be scared and I will be well prepared for what follows to come in my life. I think this program will help me to achieve very good knowledge and technical abilities in order to succeed in the sports therapy career. I have to admit I have been impressed by your university experience and reputation, experts lecturers with powerful recognition and achievements in sport, also another point which has attracted me to your University is the fact your center has the latest equipment for testing athletes, with access to computer software for coaching analysis which makes possible the understanding of various aspects of fitness and sports therapy methods. Overall, I strongly believe the reasons I have described above with my past sports achievements, current involvement and interest in sports therapy and recovery make me a strong candidate in order to be accepted at your Sports Therapy Academic Program.
