What I would like to share with you comes from what I learned as a volunteer wrestling coach for 20 years and 16 years for a local high school. I learned more over the years than my student-athletes did. I would like to share two lessons.
Firstly, I learned over the years that sports did more for the undertalented athlete than the one with gifts and talent. Instead of making champions out of boys, we were making men. The champions were always going to get the medals. They didn’t need to be encouraged as much as the kid who lost to the champions.
