Titans named Core Values Team of the Month!

Out of 1300 kids and over 120 coaches the Titans have been named the YMCA Core Values Team of the Month! It is called the team of the month, however it is only given out each season. This award was voted on by parents, coaches, and YMCA personnel that have seen each and every team and observed them during games and practices. I have been told by YMCA personnel that we do more with our kids in addition to soccer than most every other team. I always just felt as though we are doing the things that we are suppose to do...... mentor our kids.

Soccer is the vessel we use to convey many different values to the kids in a fun way. We use soccer to teach the kids the core values of the Y. Respect, Responsibility, Caring, Honesty, and Faith. We also teach them others such as Charity or Giving, Sharing, Kindness, and Prayer just to name a few. To be chosen for this award is a true honor. Coach Jeff and I take this responsibility very seriously. Coach Jeff is my assistant coach and has done a very good job in helping me teach these values in addition to the game of soccer.

The YMCA Sports Director will be attending our next practice to present the kids with wristbands that they can wear the remainder of the season so people will know that the Titans are the Core Values Team of the Month. They will also have their picture taken to be put on the front page of the next YMCA Sports Newsletter.

I am so proud of these kids and their parents for the role models they are for their children. I can honestly say that this is by far the most enjoyable season I have ever had coaching. The entire Y will now look to our team as a model for how things should be done. These kids are more than deserving of this award and I would like to recognize them now.
