At the end of this season Joel is finally able to let the "We Are The Champions" anthem play! After a great season (11-1) they were League Champions and then took 1st place in the Championship Tournament! The past four season's of coaching, Joel's teams have been League Champs but have never been able to secure that final tournament Championship so this was a huge celebration for the team and Joel! The team consisted of a great group of boys that Joel truly enjoyed coaching. It was really fun to see them improve throughout the season and we are looking forward to being able to see a lot of them play in high school as well.
As always, Parker and I attended most games...Parker is now more into dribbling a basketball than watching the games but it was still really fun! At the end of every game he got to go into the locker room with the team and put his hand in the huddle...so cute!
The highlight of the year for me was watching Brady and Chad, both boys with special needs, have opportunities to play in a few games and actually score. The team was amazing at setting them up to get good shots and the crowd celebrated like we had just won the Championship ever time they scored!
