Lax Jam

Hello Lax Nation,

Well, I think today's jamboree didn't quite go the way anyone had hoped.  But that's ok, it was a good test for us to see where we need to improve.  Please tell your kids that it wasn't that the other teams were that much better than us, it was that we broke down defensively.  Also, the other team had a bunch of 13 year olds and honestly we were lucky if we qualified as a U-11 team.  Unfortunately, size and speed make a big deal.  I am very proud of our boys.  We will keep working on our weaknesses and building on our strengths.

Remember, regardless of the outcome of the game we want to redefine what a winner is to our kids.  Winners are not defined by the score board like every kid thinks.  Winners are those who walk off the field exhausted from giving it their all.  Winners are those who learned from the competition of sport and are ready to tackle the new challenge of the next game.

The score might of said we lost, but the boys are winners in my eyes!


No practice on Sunday & I will not be here next week.  Coach Joe will be in charge of the practice on Wednesday at 6 on the Vineyards field.
