About Avneet:
My name is Avneet Sandhu, and I have been passionate about soccer since I was six years old. I currently play center back for California Odyssey Girls U15 ECNL. I am a dedicated student-athlete who takes pride in excelling both on and off the field. After skipping 7th grade, I graduated 8th grade as Valedictorian with a 4.0 GPA while balancing competitive soccer. I also earned several academic and athletic awards. These experiences have taught me discipline, determination, and time management. My goal is to continue playing soccer at the collegiate and professional level while pursuing my dream of a career in medicine.

Playing Style:
As a center back, I am a strong, confident, and disciplined defender. I take pride in reading the game, winning tackles, communicating with teammates, and staying composed under pressure. I bring leadership, hard work, and determination to every game while helping my team both defensively and offensively.
