Hi my name is Avery Leigh Bennet I'm from Dever, CO I just turned 18, im a senior in high school, I've played on the National Youth teams since I was 13. It's been my dream to play on the National team since I started playing soccer when I was 5. I'm 6'3, Blue eyes, Dirty Blonde hair. I get hit on alot by boys, its kinda gross because I'm so gay, most people say I don't look like the soccer type,I mean I have a 6 pack and all-around look so muscler, I did CrossFit until I was 16 then I just trained by myself.
--------------------------------------------------------------
I wake up to the sound of my alarm at 7:30 I get up get dressed, I go down into the kitchen to be met with my dad "Have a good day at school" I reply with a "Thanks" and I head out i get into my car and drive to school.
---------–---------------------------------------------------
After school I go to the soccer field because we have practice after school, im the star foward for our school, im a 5 Star recruit with Ucla, Stanford, Santa Clara, Berkeley, and many other school offers. "Come on girls over here" are coach calls out motioning us to come over to him i jog over to him "So we have some special guests, 3 USWNT players are here and their coach Jill Ellis to just watch you guys play, and there is the SheBelives coming up so if you play good enough you could have a spot. I see Mal Pugh, Lindsey Horan, Sam Mewis, and Jill Ellis watching me, and Mal looks at me and whispers to Sam."Okay girls, Go into drills" coach says as we go onto the pitch.
Don't mess up Avery if you play good enough your dreams could come true i think to myself. We are running drills and we go onto 3v3 this girls don't have a chance agianst me i get the ball go to the left right fake the defender out with my hip movement and I shoot the ball left as the Goalie goes to the right and the ball goes to the back of the net, i continously score agianst the defenders and goalies, after our team is up 10-2 our coach calls us over "Okay girls good practice, we have a game tomorrow here at 5:30, you guys are good to go" i jog off the field taking my cleats off and Jill Ellis walks over to me "You are a tremendous player" "Umm...Th..that means.. So much coming from you" i say studering "We have a big Training camp January 29-Feb 25th, and I want you there" i look at her shocked "Umm yes, I would love too, that would be amazing" "Okay, your coach gave me your information, I will send you the plane ticket info and everything like that, I will see you in New Jersey" Jill walks off after telling me that I sit there shooked and I take my shirt off because the one I was wearing is sweaty showing my Nike sports bra and Abs "Hey Your really good" I see Mal walking over to me trying to catch up" "Your not to bad yourself" I tell her stopping so she can catch up, i see her eyes look me up and down "My eyes are up here" I look at her and a red tone creeps on her face "I wasn't....Ummm" I laugh "Its fine" I smile "Well I'm gonna get going, will I see you at Camp, Mal" I smile "Umm, yeah, see you there" She walks off and i get in my car to go home. When I get home I put my soccer bag by my door I plug my phone into the charger and I get into the shower. When I get off the shower I change into a Nike sports bra and some Shorts. I sit on my bed and i grab my phone I see Jill Ellis emailed me the Plane Tickets and Information, I see i have a text message from an unknown number
720-586-9012
Mal:Hey its mal
Me:Ohh hey, wait how'd you get my number
Mal:Jill Duh

Mal: Just so you Know the Whole Team is gonna be at your game, just so you show up and you see 23 Soccer superstars
Me:Thanks, im not no nervous, well Kinda because you're watching me play, but I'll be fine
Mal:Why me?
Me: Because you're Mallory Freakin Pugh
Mal: Im just a normal girl, that's good at soccer, like you, besides nobody would wanna mess with you, you probably could pick the whole team up with 1 finger
