Spirit week is here!!!
I took this off of Facebook today. Very well said. Thank you to so many people involved to make Winter-blast so special for our young players and cheerleaders. .
Dylan and I volunteered to coach a 4th through 6th grade team at WCA’s winter blast this year. If anybody needs to smile and just plain feel good about life come on out on Saturday Morning and watch these kids play. It is pure love for a game at its core! One of our players told me before we started “Coach this is the best day of my life, my first basketball game!” Our job is not so much to teach X’s and O’s but to make sure that love of the game never wavers as they get older. We took the L today but played hard and never gave up!!!
What great support and involvement for opening day of Winterblast basketball at WCA
