Jerome is my name, Volleyball is my game. 

 I began playing volleyball when I was nine years old and haven't stopped since. I originally joined volleyball for the social component and did not expect to like it as much as I have. My passion for volleyball evolved progressively over time as I began to devote more time and effort to the sport. Volleyball has now become my happy spot, where I can temporarily forget about everything else and focus on the sport. Volleyball is a game won in three out of five sets of twenty-five points apiece, with the fifth set being a tie breaker of fifteen points. Each team gets three touches to send the ball over the net and no player can touch the ball twice in a row. Each touch is consisted of a pass, set, and hit. 

Volleyball is a game based on endurance, speed, agility, and power. Due to the intensity of the game, endurance is important. Power is also important because to earn your team a point you need to have the strength to serve, block, and hit the ball hard enough for it to reach the floor. At every moment, you need to be quick on your feet for when the ball is coming towards you. As for agility, it is needed to fully grasp the skills performed in volleyball.

Because of my passion and love for volleyball I became a varsity player since junior high school to senior high school, I also have the chance to represent our barangay quadraple times to inter-barangay the biggest volleyball competition existing in my barangay. Through out the years volleyball help me to broaden my horizon and meet new amazing sets of people, it also pushed me to become the best version of myself and I think until my last breath I will still cherish that once in my life I become a volleyball player. 

This is me, saying Jerome is my name, Volleyball is my game.
