I added something this year, shamelessly stolen from Dennis Larson after coaching with him for 2 years of soccer. I’d like to feel I helped him refine it a little.
Game Ball, nominated by coaches- voted on by players. Who would have thought how hungry these athletes are for such a simple reward. But, it’s not the ball- rather what it represents. Hard work in practice + ex*****on on game day = recognition by coach & peers for a job well done.
I wish I had done it sooner! But just like athletes, coaches can grow too.
Come pack the gym, Monday 12/4 4:00pm. The undefeated Oaklea Tigers 8th grade girls basketball 🏀 take on the undefeated visitors O’Hara (Marist) coached by the fantastic David Thompson in a clash for first place!
