Do you have a story to share? I am collecting stories about the impact of coaches on player's lives. Is there a coach that has influenced you? Inspired you? Encouraged you? What lessons did they teach you and how? How have the coaches you played for made a difference in your life? Is there a memory that stands out? A game, a practice, a moment in the bottom of the ninth when something changed, forever? What lessons did playing teach you and how have you carried these lessons into your life?

Across the top of the blog, just under the banner, you will see a new link called "The View from the Bench". To leave a story, just click on the link and share a story or two about a coach who has made a difference in your life.
