Journey to the Tourney

3/25/2013

Dribble for Destiny has just completed its first annual Journey to the Tourney.  Teams - 47 in all -  from the Carolinas and Georgia hit the hardwoods in some exciting games.  We are especially proud of our 5 Carolina Crusader teams who not only played hard, but truly exemplified what we are trying to promote in our athletes:  Winning is Big, but Character is HUGE.  Crusaders, you are learning to go the distance:  fighting the battles, savoring victories, accepting losses, and growing in the process.  One of the verses in our Carolina Crusader Creed is Matthew  23:11, 12 -  “The greatest among you will be your servant.  For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”  (If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all.)  This letter sums up what we are trying to accomplish in all that we do...

Sherri:
Just wanted to thank you for your and Lisa's hard work this weekend.  I was so proud of our 6th grade boys, who I think are some of the  sweetest and smartest players out there.  I was especially proud in comparison to the poor behavior of the parents/coach of the 6th grade (name hidden) team.  Unfortunately, that last game really took some of the fun,
positive aspects of competition out of the tournament for our family.  As I'm  sure you've seen, when parents step over the line
in terms of being respectful and showing good sportsmanship, it tends to foster that same behavior in their kids.  Whatever D4D is doing to promote good, spirited behavior in their players is working - keep it up!
