I lived in a town of 400 until I was like nine or ten. My dad coached all the sports - he was a gym teacher and health teacher for grades K-12.
My mom she's from Ireland coached tennis in Nigeria when she was a missionary and turned me on to it when I was young.
I have been coaching recently. I coached high school basketball in Arizona and I hope that more opportunities become available.
I remember my dad who coached football would buy some of his players football shoes when they couldn't afford it.
I think the sport of wrestling which I became involved with at the age of 14... I competed until I was 34 kind of old for a contact sport. I coached the sport until I was 47. I think the discipline of wrestling has given me the discipline I have to write.
