A year ago, my 11 year old niece was disappointed because the basketball
coach would not let her go out for the team.. I decided to work with her so she would have the opportunity to go out for the team this year. We went to the gym weekly from February - October....
Last week, she experienced her first few days of
basketball practice with her team. It has not been easy for her. Each
day she told me how hard it was. I even received a phone call from her
at 7am one morning still talking about how hard it was and all the
running.
On Thursday evening, she complained some more but then she ended with
this. "Auntie, it's hard and a lot of work.. But I like basketball and
I'm not gonna quit". #greatattitude
It's not always easy doing something new and different. I'm proud of my niece for not quitting when last year's coach did not give her a chance. I'm proud of her now for not quitting because it's not easy.
Below is video of our very first day at the gym:
