Football is back at Wayne Christian School.
It sounds so good to say that out loud.
I am so excited about football being back at Wayne Christian School and I am excited to be the head football coach. It is a dream come true for me.
I have wanted to be a high school football coach for the longest time and it always seemed to be a dream that would never become a reality. But now it is really happening – football is back at Wayne Christian School, and I am the football coach.
Football has always been a big part of my life. I played my first game of organized tackle football when I was six years old. I have been on a team that made it all the way to the league “Super Bowl,” and I have been on a team that scored only one touchdown the whole season. I also had the opportunity to play on an undefeated team. I can tell you first hand that some of the best lessons in life, I learned because of football.
I am excited about football being back. I am excited about the football staff we are putting together. I am excited about spring practice. But I am most excited about what we are going to achieve in football.
I hope that one day we will win a conference championship. I hope that one day we will win a state championship. But more importantly, I promise you that we are going to develop young men into football players and the lessons we teach them will be lessons they carry with them the rest of their lives.
Mark your calendars for some very important dates:
Tuesday, May 14 @ 7:00 – Parent and players meeting for current fifth through eleventh-grade boys. If you have a son that is interested in playing football, you need to be at this meeting. We will share details about a middle school team, spring practice, and summer workouts; players will also be fitted for their helmets and shoulder pads.
Thursday, May 16 @ 7:30 – First day of spring practice will take place on the football field. Players will wear shells (helmet and shoulder pads) and we will begin working on basic fundamentals.
