TAUREAN GREENIDGE
My experience so far at High Point University has been nothing short of life-changing. Adapting to the completely different lifestyle of America was quite difficult at first, but has become more and more enjoyable as time goes by; but all it takes is little getting used to.
The level of football here is much higher than in Barbados, especially when it comes to fitness, speed of play and overall knowledge of the game, so I really had to step up my game tremendously. It is also a much more disciplined environment and requires a lot of dedication and heart.
My weekly routine is quite hectic. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are all field training days, where we do a lot of technical stuff and ball work. Tuesdays and Thursdays we have weight training early in the mornings. My routine includes classes everyday, which are not too bad, as long as you do the work.
Balancing academics and football at the same time can be difficult at times, but it takes a lot of discipline and effort. It is a lot of hard work, but it is also very enjoyable and will definitely pay off in the end. I believe that any one of my fellow Kickstart teammates would easily fit in here and become successful.
