Red Five

My favorite...when travel teams from Omaha travel to KC and end up playing 4 teams from Omaha!  Hahaha

@krc1995 “travel” meaning that we play other twin city metro area suburbs/schools.  The team is made up of kids in our school district.  It’s about a tournament every other weekend from November through February.  It’s not AAU or anything where we are going to Chicago or someplace.

Trust me, I don’t have dreams of the kid being the next Larry Bird, and his chances of ever playing varsity is slim being that our school has about 900/grade.

But he is a good athlete and enjoys the challenge of playing against good competition.  He told me many times last year when we were winning games by 40 points in our house league that it “wasn’t much fun”.

I would consider it a blessing he has this opportunity to be one that isn't picked and the fact that it upset him would bring me even more joy.  You have the makings of a winner in the best sense.
