I'm posting this hear to get the opinion of coaches but parents of players please give your opinion as well.
Heartbreaking as it is, a girl on DD's basketball team had her father pass away this week. He'd been sick for a while and we all knew it was just a matter of time. This girl has played on the team for several years and is just a great kid. Her brothers as well. The father's Wake is this week on the same day as our first game. Should we cancel the game out of respect? The times do not conflict but my initial feeling was yes we should.
What do you all say?
