Hoops are back.
High school basketball kicks off Monday, with both the Coupeville girls and boys squads set to tip-off their first practices.
As he counts down the hours, minutes and maybe even seconds, Wolf girls coach David King has a few thoughts running through his head:
The excitement of a new season is upon us.
In less than 24 hours I get to start losing my voice for a few weeks. And that’s a good thing.
It means I’m coaching, instructing and encouraging.
The feeling of a new season starting reminds me of memories of a kid the night before Christmas or going to a place like Disneyland for the first time.
Or making that first basket.
We have had a great off season with a punctuation with a great showing at the shooting clinic on Saturday.
Those that attended have already made advancements in their shooting that others missed out on.
Starting tomorrow each and every player has to have the mindset to compete in every drill, every play and every day to earn their spot and playing time.
This includes attitude, effort, skill set, coachability and willingness to put team over individual.
