Juniors

Last night was a rainy night.Why does anyone care?That help set in motion my ability to help out at today's junior tournament.I found out my daughters t-ball game was cancelled so I was able to help out.It was by far our largest Junior turnout to date.I have to personally thank Joe Camiola for manning the desk today.Usually Gloria is part two of the desk team but she could not make it today.We had about 35 particpants and I have to tell you that the kids ability is really improving.NJAR made a nice donation of t shirts for all the junior players and Ektelon donated the new red fireball for the day.It is great to see the great attitude of these kids win or lose.They are better sportmen than we are .Another thing that makes it so enjoyable is the appreciation of the parents,and they are all eager to help out.A few of the parents have even taken the parent /children classes with Rick Folger.On a personal note I would really like to thank Rick for how well he has developed the Junior program.When we started the NJAR no one really had the time to grow the juniors.We are always talking about how we have increased racquetball membership and forget that Rick has succeded beyond our wildest expectations!Anyone who in the future would like to help ref or help out for the day at the Junior tournaments we always appreciate it.On a personal note I really am going to start working with Madison(my 8 year old girl) on playing,I think she is a natural.Besides a Panno has to beat that Ruiz girl some day.....   "Hit Smarter not Harder"
