What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

During her atheletic journey it’s been many of moments that I was so proud of her. I would say my most memorable would be the year I coached her basketball team 9U and she was the only player that had played before amongst many other girls. She stepped up like an assistant coach at just 9 years old! She helped me run drills, teach the girls all the basic developmental skills. She would play all 4 quarters of every single game as point guard helping guide her teammates and Never got frustrated.
