The Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Sports Awards was held on
Thursday, July 16, 2015 at the UCLA campus in Los Angeles, CA. The star studded
event brought out both adults and children joining together to celebrate the
amazing athletes of this past year. Athletes from young softball superstar
Mo’ne Davis to Nba Champion Stephen Curry walked the orange carpet in
celebration of the Choice Sports Awards.
EURweb had the chance to speak with
the game winning interception Superbowl Champion Malcolm Butler, Philadelphia
76ers Center Javale McGee, Detroit Pistons star Andre Drummond, and many more.
“Work Hard and Stay Focused” was the motto for many of the
athletes on the red carpet. Many players shared stories of consistently working
on their game and wanting to get better every season. One NFL player admitted
that research and being prepared is what gave him the edge last season. “Coach
told me to get in the game and I recognized the formation the offense was in
and I jumped the route of the receiver” is what Malcolm Butler of the Patriots
expressed as he was describing his final moments in the breath taking SuperBowl
this past year.
One thing we can all agree on is these athletes have many
young fans looking up to them. In a world where mistakes are often caught so
easily the athletes expressed that trying to be a good role model for the youth
is very important to them. Many remember looking up to different athletes as
they were children coming up and they wanted to be just like them. So they
understand that what they say, do, and represent is a major part of their jobs.
They want to do right by the kids and also right by themselves. Being on the
orange carpet is a young kids dream and every athlete was happy to be there for
their fans.
