Volleyball just for fun and to spend time with my family. Volleyball was created by William G. Morgan in Massachusetts. Volleyball helped me on many occasions with stress or the absence of my parents since they had to travel outside the country, also when my grandmother passed away it helped me with sadness, I started playing volleyball when I was 6 years old but this began to have more impact on me over the years. The one who gave me the idea to start practicing volleyball was my mother, that is why it is so important for me to practice this sport, it also became a family tradition to practice this sport when we are all together and go on family trips. An event that happened was when they offered me a scholarship to study abroad, so my friends and with the support of my family I went to play in Jamaica. Then when I returned my surprise was to find my father waiting for me at the airport. The main reason why that this sport is important to me is because it helps me remember who I am, where I come from and all the moments I have gone through to be who I am today.
