My third grade daughter got a points/rebounds/steals triple double last night.

Must of the points rebounds were her own misses.

She’d make it Sprint to half court (no pressing yet) and yell “I GOT BALL,I GOT BALL” like a demon

I’m coaching 2 second grade girl games today. We had so many kids request us as coaches we split the team in two. We are incredibly good even split up. My daughter plays on both teams. She’s mean as crap and is a menace on D.

Quit counting our scores before halftime because of the 20 point rule. I have a set of twins on our team that are the Caitlin Clark x2 of 7U basketball.

My oldest is in 8th and did Cross Country for the first time this year. Great sport for a certain type of kid. Mine has never liked contact so most team sports weren't for him, although he did continue rec soccer this season.

What I liked about CC was unless you were going to medal or close to medaling, you're just going against your own PR. Also the meets are everyone cheering for all the kids. V fun.
One of my kiddos has taken up XC. I didn't know anything about it before but I love it now. The coaches are great people and it is fun to run from point to point on the course providing encouragement for the runners. There is a team aspect to it but like you say, for most kids it is about improving your PR week by week.

Been taking live at bats against my 15 year old son last few months. Humbling getting buckled by a curve from someone you diapered.

8 yr old Schreds scored her first goal in competitive soccer on Sunday.  She was pretty pumped.  Dad Schreds was even more pumped as this was the last game of the fall season.

Spread motion with the baseline screen against a man, lay up city.

Find a kid who is nails from 12 to 15 and run a 3 man overload against a zone.

Teach them to ball and man D, and run an amoeba press.

Is this a cry for help or a humble brag? I'm monitoring the situation closely.

the reason my daughter plays on two is because we coached them last year and the other assistant coach decided to invite like 6 girls to join our team THAT ALREADY HAD LIKE 7 GIRLS ON IT. I told him he had to tell them they can't join but he felt bad and talked me into splitting them up lower and higher level and for us to coach BOTH STINKIN TEAMS and because of numbers my daughter and two other girls play on both teams and next week we play each other and, folks, our better team is going to absolutely body our lower level team and we will need to make sure that it goes smoothly and that actually doesn't happen. Also need to strategically split the three that play both teams to help in that. lower level team is 3-2 on the year and upper team is 6-0 so far. We practice both teams together and get the whole gym since we have two teams. normally 2nd grade has to practice on a half court with a different team on the other side.

Literally the best way to do it
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.
