It’s more disrespectful to stop trying imo.

Guest wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2025 1:57 pm I've been reflecting on the youth sports scene – SIR, VRE, LF, FH, NT – and it strikes me how similar they all are. You'll find quiet kids, loud kids, those who struggle, and those who excel.

I applaud every single one of these kids, their parents, and especially the coaches and managers. The time and dedication you all pour into these teams, rushing from practice to games, juggling multiple kids' schedules – it's remarkable.

My advice? Just go and enjoy it. It's really no different than the schoolyard. There will always be some kids who fight, some who hurl insults, and some who watch in silent disbelief.

I cherish every minute I get to spend with my children, watching them grow, navigate challenges with teammates and coaches, and deal with difficult personalities as well as wonderful people. It's just like life. And it deeply saddens me that it will all be over in three short years. They'll move on, and we'll grow older.

These are precious times boys. Enjoy them, soak them up, and be proud. Don't get caught up in negativity and conflict. In the end, it won't change anything. Hopefully, they'll learn valuable lessons that will help them navigate the realities of life.

It’s the best thing I’ve ever seen for minor hockey. Those guys are amazing. Keep up the great work, lads! Really hope we meet in the playoffs, so I can watch and listen to the play by play.
