[LO1] Identify own strengths and develop areas for growth

I have been playing basketball for several years but I still think there is a myriad of areas for growth and in fact, as I play more I actually discover more and more areas for development. For example, there are communication issues during plays. For instance, during a pick and roll, on the defensive side, it is important to call switches when necessary and simply be loud to let teammates know what is happening. A personal area for growth that I have been focusing on and I would like to continue is trying to take leadership. This can be done through drills by being louder and from experience, I think a good leader needs to control the team but also work with them and this can be very hard to balance. One strength I have is self-management because in my opinion I am always engaged and listening.  I am always trying my hardest to learn or improve and even when I am not successful, I try to persevere and my resilience is also another strength that I can identify.
