Coach Waite

We have been so incredibly busy lately that we just can't seem to keep up with everything, including this site! Part of how busy we are comes from Trevor's coaching. That's right! Coach Waite....


Soon after basketball season started Ray Davis asked Trevor to come help him coach the freshmen girls team. He agreed because he can't seem to ever say no to Ray and because he loves basketball. There were a few nights of him coming home grumbling, though. Whenever I would ask him what was wrong he was just say, "GIRLS basketball." Don't take it the wrong way, but he just could not understand some of them. His patience would stretch a little thin at times when they weren't getting the basics of bball. Of course I tried to be supportive, so I went to all the games, and I was able to understand what he was talking about a little better.
As the season progressed, it was really fun to watch the relationships Trev developed with these girls. He has come to like them, and like coaching "girls". He seemed to do a pretty good job so he was soon helping with the JV team, and by the end varsity as well.
It was a rough season and the girls struggled a bit, but Trevor's already thinking about next year, so I guess the girls aren't as bad as he thought. I am slowly bringing him around to the fact that we girls are pretty cool, and that it's not always about the boys........(even though it was at his house growing up!)
