Michael’s dad, Wade. Wade inspired Michael to play sports, at first Michael didn’t think it was for him, he thought he wasn’t good enough to play. But dad seen something in him that reminded him of himself. Wade taught Michael everything he knew about the sport and helped Michael achieve the goals he needed to be better.
I am proud that Michael kept going when it became hard. He never gave up on himself nor his team when things didn’t go right or during a lose of a game or season. Michael takes it all in and uses it as fuel for next season, to be better and play harder.
