Dear Coach Smith:
I’m writing to express my sincere interest in attending Northpoint
College and becoming a member of your softball team. I am currently a
senior at Southeastern High School in Tallahassee, Florida and have
maintained a solid 3.1 GPA with a full roster of upper level classes
geared towards a college major in biology. I’ve been a starter for the
Southeastern Wildcats softball team for two seasons, and was voted Most
Improved Player for the 2007 season. Please see my attached resume for a
full listing of my softball statistics.
My goal for college is to obtain a solid education so that I can
pursue further education in veterinarian science. I also plan to work
hard to maximize my talents in softball, and would be a definite asset
to your team. Last season I played an integral part in bringing home a
18 – 2 winning season for the Wildcats. My skills are solid, my heart is
in my sport, and I’ve got the dedication to train hard to become an even
better athlete.
I’m sending a video of a few of my best plays, but I’d also like to
talk with you personally about my qualifications. I can be reached at
555-555-5555 after 4 p.m.
Sincerely,
Susie Thompson
