Hello friends, I am J.Harish. In this blog, I am going to share my own experience as a sportsman and about leadership qualities.
When I was 13 years old, my school handball coach (physical education teacher) told me to come to our playground after school time. I was shocked and confused why he call me and I ask my friend for an opinion and my friend told me to respond him so, I went to playground to ask that why he called me.
He asked me that will you play for our school team,I replied him yes sir, I am willing to play.
He want a player for our school Handball team so I joined my school's handball team.
Handball is a sport which is more common to football.
My coach check my fitness for 5 days. Everyday I ran 5 rounds at my school ground without play with my team because my coach ordered me to don't touch the ball for a week and concentrate about your running.
After 5 days, he gave me a handball and teach me to shoot the ball into the goal post, pass the ball in the correct way, leg position while shoot goal, etc.
Finally I learn all the rules very quickly and train very well for inter school competition.
One day there is a match between my team players conducted by our school. My coach announce that I am the captain of green house and I am so excited to lead my team.this is a match to find the best players for zonal level competition.
I played very well and won the match and selected for zonal level and I am the captain for zonal team also. I proved my leadership qualities as a captain and best player of my team. But we failed to win the zonal level, we are runner up in that zonal level but I am the player with top most goals (8) in two matches and defend (3) balls from opponent and I selected for SGFI(School Games Federation of India) district selection at Trichy .
My coach trained me very well and I work hard to select for next level. My friend S.Gowtham Anand is the main reason behind this small achivement of my life, he helps me at my training time daily by count how many rounds I ran at our ground and I decided to join him in my team as a goal keeper.
I ran 50 rounds everyday for my selection practice and I reached Trichy with my coach.
During selection period, I performed very well in running, ball throw, goal shooting,but I am not selected for next level. my coach told me that first we want to win the zonal so, concentrate about zonal first.
I am the only player to select for SGFI selection from my school team so, all the physical education teachers know about my game and about my captaincy.
When my friends play for under -14 team, I played for under-17 team as a captain . In my under- 17 team there are many senior players for me but my coach believe my game plans and my captaincy style.
I am very proud to play as a player and as a captain. That is a great feel when we hit a goal all the audience will make noise like hayyyy,oohhhhh, that makes us boost to play well.
