A comment on the pursuit of excellence ...


The comments below from a team seeking to compete at the National Tournament jumped off the page as we read it this morning.  It pretty much sums up why this event is such a positive endeavor for so many teams.   Their coaches have the kind of perspective a student-athlete coach should have, in our opinion; in creating meaningful, positive experiences and memories for growing young athletes.  Best wishes to those who don't let being good get in the way of being great.

"These girls deserve the chance to compete at an even higher level so they can challenge themselves and have this incredible experience to add to their memories.  If we can make it to Nationals it will help with outreach in our high schools to make rugby more known in our community."
"We are hoping for the NIT to be a huge learning experience for the girls and help them refine their skills."
