"Last week was absolutely amazing! I was so nervous about this coming season,
because my coach wanted me to play a new position I wasn't used to,
but now I feel totally ready for the coming school season!
I'm so grateful for you and all the coaches for pushing me to learn and prepare myself.
I'll keep you and all the coaches in mind this year every game!
Thank you!"
