Wisdom for a Coach’s Heart

He saw players that needed a dream,
Heart that needed a direction,
Drive that needed a passion.
To him he saw boys that would be men.
They looked up to him and valued his praise.
Feared his disappointment and try to never fail.
To them he was the man
and what he thought mattered the most.
The players called him coach.
He taught them leadership of a person,
And teamwork that could not be beaten.
They showed him work and promise.
The coach did not lie and did not treat
one better than the other.
He gave them a dream and they achieve.
One dream, to be the best.
Just to know him was to share in a passion.
A passion so strong that it devoured you whole.
His faith in his player's made them believe,
that anything is possibly.
They became family that win or lose,
They would stand together.
One coach with a heart to give
and player's dreams to achieve.
Gave the sport a soul
called Handball.

Thanks... coach.
