Everything's gonna be Okay

After our first REAL day of practice, I'm a lot less anxious. I had them run and they ran without whining- what's more having them run helped the ADHA girls focus more.

The junior high kids are willing to work. We started with the most basic fundamentals- motion technique.

Three of the five varsity girls know their suff already- two vets and one short-time vet, and she told me that she's been working really hard to review and practice as much as she can. The rookie who missed just forgot, she wasn't skipping.

So maybe this will be a pretty good season after all.
