How do you sum up and say goodbye to 22 years? I am not really sure you can but here goes…
After 22 years it’s time for me to retire from owning and coaching an all-star program. It has been a wonderful 22 years but I simply want to do something different with my life (not sure what yet 🤣).
I have had the blessing of coaching along side some amazing people for 22 years. If you ever coached for me then Thank You! It was all us as a WFAS coaching family that made the program successful!
I coached some great athletes and the memories I have made with them are too many to be counted. To me it was always about the kids and what they would take away from all-star cheer to use in their adult life. The competitions, wins, losses, trophies, banners, etc were just temporary; it’s the lessons we all learned along the way that will remain.
I had the pleasure of watching our final 3 teams compete this last weekend at the D2 Summit and as always that made our program proud!
As I turn out the lights for the final time on Wake Forest All-Stars please know it was a great ride and I loved every minute of it! Thanks to all of you that supported us… without you it wouldn’t have been possible!
One last piece of advice, be nice to your new gym owners and coaches and remember to trust them as they know more than you do 😊! I can’t wait to watch your athletes compete this upcoming season!
Cheers,
Shannon
