I believe that sports allow us to be a part of something bigger than ourselves. When you have to rely on the work, effort and camaraderie of your team to have success, you find out so much about yourself. I believe that being ultimately selfless allows a player to grow in so many ways. Having a common goal with your teammates is the ultimate selfless action–working as one, putting yourself second to the needs of others and being a part of a team all while “Working for the Lord” is one of the most rewarding opportunities a student athlete can have!

I believe the game of basketball teaches many valuable life lessons such as hard work, commitment, teamwork, and dealing with adversity. Being able to coach at Holland Christian allows me to share how God can use these life lessons in the game of basketball to help shape Holland Christian players into becoming more like Jesus.

I am so excited to coach basketball because of the impact it has had in my own life. Being a part of a team, something larger than yourself creates so many opportunities for life long lessons. Sports allow us to form strong relationships as we support our teammates and coaches through committed hard work on and off the court. It challenges us to grow as individuals and work together by showcasing and lifting up one another’s God given abilities! We also have a great responsibility to be Christ-like examples in ALL that we do!
