Post to all my teams: As the end of the contract year draws near, the end of my coaching comes to a close. This has been very hard for me as I have had some of these girls since they were 4yrs old!! These girls are now going to High School, some are going to 8th grade of Middle school and this final season has been bitter sweet as they all will continue their journeys with other teams, clubs, or just do other stuff besides soccer.
Coaches always face losing players after every season, and I have seen great teams split up around this age, but even though I thought I was prepared for it, I am not. It has not been easy on me, and I will miss each and every one of them....parents and players.
Parents: Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be a part of your child's soccer life. The time we spend together always seems to come and go too quickly, but I would not have had it any other way.
Ladies: All of you have had a positive impact on my life as I hope I have on yours. Some of you have left a positive impression on each other, and I hope you do the same as you move on to your new teams. I know each of you will continue to grow your soccer level and hope to see you all play professional soccer one day!!
I have always felt the hardest part of coaching is watching your players move on, knowing that you won't have a chance to see them on a regular basis anymore. But I can also say in a way it is rewarding to have been yall's coach because I realize I've played a small role in helping each and everyone of you and now you are all moving on to the next chapter in your life as well.
I wish you all good health, a great life, and lots of joy and happiness in whatever yall decide to do.
