Why I coach?
I do it because every young girl that comes to my teams needs a positive, fair, decent role model in their life. Of course some get it from their parents but many do not.
I coach to push the athlete to the next level with knowledge and advancement in the game. I coach so when the athlete goes to their next team the new coaches will be impressed of their skill. I coach to get them to the next level in their life. I am not worried about the trophy that can be won today but worry hoping I have made a change in the young lady's lives to hopefully when they will go on to do positive things for others and the sport. I coach for tomorrow not today. Today is for instruction for how we should live tomorrow.
I tell the parents that I coach softball but teach principles of life for how they should behave with respect to all but fear none attitude. I have had girls tell me they wish their Dad was like me or have called me Dad (got a player her Dad passed away 3 months ago and she basically lives here at our house with my daughter on the weekends).
I coach because I want to make a change for the kids that come through my programs.
