Real talk, I haven’t been myself for a long time. I don’t know if I will ever be myself again, but I am hoping some improvement comes out of this. I know we are likely all in a similar position. We just have to persevere & do our best to stay positive. Maybe even get some help 🙏🏽

In 2014, after losing the OFSAA🥇 by 3 pts, I said,
“A team must be a family to win. But a team must truly be a family when you lose.”
I have always felt this way. We built a 🏀 program with “family” as the foundation. The proof is in the life-long friendships we share!

As a 30 yr vet of Toronto & Ontario 🏀, I don’t “know it all” but I have paid my dues (many haven’t) & feel confident speaking publicly (many shouldn’t). The reality of many prep programs who claim to be rooted in development, R actually rooted in "coache$ financial development”

I have been asked 4 advice on prep programs. The costs R amazing! We charged $2000 in 2019-2020 which appears to be very low compared to $4900, $7500, $8000, $10000, etc. I have no doubt our team of VOLUNTEER coaches prepared our players individually & as a team better than any!!
