“When my daughter was in kindergarten and signed up for soccer I wanted to be involved. They needed coaches so I volunteered. Having never played soccer I was nervous I would fail miserably so I peppered my soccer friends with questions about the game, read coaching books, and committed to give it my all. About 10 minutes into the first practice, I realized that I loved coaching kids!
My goals at the beginning of each season are the same: ensure the kids have fun, they enjoy the season and want to play that sport next year, and they accomplish something they didn’t know was possible. My favorite part of youth sports is getting them fired up in a huddle to play before the game and remind them that star of our team is the team.”
