ATHLETE OF THE MONTH: Vayda Smith

Our athlete of the month is Vayda Smith.  Vayda works hard at being a strong athlete and her determination is evident. During the original COVID lockdown, she spent 1-2 hours a day working out on her own using the Beach Body or the Peloton on Demand Apps. She has participated in four different online basketball camps and tutorials during the last six months. Vayda participated in the Emily Potter program twice and the Attack Basketball program twice. Vayda also spends hours downstairs practicing her dribbling and foot work.  During the summer she participated in a High Performance Basketball Camp. Also this summer, Vayda resumed playing soccer with the U13 SC Force. Just recently, she tried out and made the U14 P1 team which is an amazing accomplishment.  Currently Vayda is playing basketball 2x/week with the Wildcats under Mr. W's direction and she continues to play soccer with the Force 1-2 times/week. Vayda also runs 3– 5 miles on the weekends and loves to walk her dog.  When she has a night off she works on her cardio and strength training.  Her hard work and determination is evident.  Vayda is a team player who loves to be active.  Way to go Vayda!  Keep up the great work!​
