We played our first game today... the kids played their feet off! Lots of running up and down the court, (Much) better than expected rebounding... some really good ball handling...
And, it came down to the last minute, but WOW, we managed to pull it out 42 - 40. The kids and parents were very excited. I'm bushed..
And, to think we only had one of our players shoot at our basket by accident (he scored... two points to the opponent.)
I told him to shake it off and forget about it... we win or lose as a team.
One of the parents came to me after the game to say I was the best coach his daughter had played for in her three years in the league.
I think I like this!
