THE REAL SCORE

"A coach can never make a great player of a youngster who isn't potentially great.  But a coach can make a great competitor of any child.  An miraculously, coaches can make adults out of children.  For a coach, the final score doesn't read so many points for my team; so many points for theirs.  Instead it reads: So many men and women out of so many boys and girls.  And this is a score that is never published.  And this is a score that coaches read to themselves, and in which they find real joy... When the last game is over."
