*BASEBALL COACHES*
With the help from our infield coach @b_szink12 I have created a Google Drive with 300+ videos dedicated to infield, outfield and team defense. If you have interest in something like this, hit the RT and I will reach out on how to access it. Preview below:

After 11 years of teaching, I am so excited to start my first year as a counselor at Scotsdale Elementary! 💕 I’ll definitely miss my students, but I am really looking forward to this new adventure 🫶🏻.
Who is the 'Silent Team MVP'?
The Spouse of a Coach.
And every coach knows it.
Here are 6 reasons why.
1. THE GLUE
The spouse of a coach is often the glue that keeps everything together and aligned. There are so many things going on in a season, and things seem to occur at 100 MPH. But the spouse of a coach is the glue that binds everything together (family, team, work, kids, and more)!
2. THE CRITICS
Leaders and coaches are in the Arena and the Spotlight, and the critics often follow. Everyone is an expert in sports, and coaching can be a very tough gig. You must have thick skin. And so must your spouse. They hear it, too. It's not easy and not fun.
3. SUPPORT
Seasons are long, and one thing for certain is that challenges will occur. Maybe it’s a team issue, a parent complaint, or a lack of administrative support. But the coach's spouse is always there to support, listen, and provide a positive outlook to keep going.
4. TIME COMMITMENT
Coaching is often an ALL-IN job, mentally and physically. It occurs after hours, is in addition to a regular FT job, and eats away at family time. Few understand this. It’s often like having a second FT job for the season. A supportive spouse is a must.
5. FAMILY STRESSORS
The time commitment and mental energy needed can eat away at family time. Coaches must be aware of this and find ways to balance and prioritize. But it is hard. A supportive spouse helps make this happen.
6. SACRIFICE
Coaches and families sacrifice a lot. But there are so many positives associated with coaching, too. Raising kids in a coaching family can be incredibly rewarding! Having your young kids come to practice and share the experience is immeasurable!

A key element to the Rangers success last year was the fact GM Chris Young put together a clubhouse filled with players with a “team-first” mindset. Travis Jankowski is one of those guys & he offers advice on being a good teammate that every young athlete needs to hear.
