<p>yeah I agree with what everyone has so far said. if you go to Navy, you will be an officer in the military so you HAVE to be a leader and be in shape. you will thus need to have at least one sport and at least one strong leadership position to be competitive. most people who apply have multiple sports and multiple leadership positions. I varsity lettered in 3 sports, was president in many clubs, was a squadron commander in CAP, eagle scout, etc. You need to do those things, but remember as Jadler 03 said “do whats in your heart”. if you do not enjoy a certain sport, try another but make sure you work hard at everything. same with what leadership stuff you get involved in. I would though definitely recommend joining CAP (civil air patrol), navy sea cadets, or JROTC to gain some “military style leadership” if you are truly serious about going to an academy. not only does it let you get a taste of a military organization, but it also will develop your leadership ability well.</p>
