My daughter didn't play a single minute in last night's Jefferson soccer game and we were okay with it. She knows her role, understands some girls are better than her and still shows up daily for 6am practice to help the team. To say I'm proud of her is an understatement.

Some coaches look for jobs where there is an abundance of talent to win. Other coaches look for jobs where kids need the most help. They are not the same!
