My youngest plays basketball and it is a sport which I coached very well. I have the Knute Rockney mentallity which is to run thru all walls, with or without cost?
She is not the worse player out there, nor is she the best. She can play defence, but offence is a ticket to see the game as she stands or moves very little. I feel she wants to be a point guard and run the show, but her talent level is not where it needs to be to do this.
Last night she actually skipped down the court to play defence, now in my years of coaching I have seen the curly shuffel, I've seen a player give back the ball to the offence player who just dribbled it off her foot, and I also have seen cartwheels. So seeing my daughter skip back on defence I should not be to upset about?
Now I'm not one of those people who belive it is OK to loose as long as you are having fun, but in her case I might make an exception?
Her talent lies in her voice and the stage. She expresses herself the best when she sings and she sings it all from Lady GaGa to almost anything else. If she knows the words she expresses it loud and clear.
But is the stage her court?
Time will tell and even though I get very frustrated watching her play basketball she makes me happy most of the days!
