Ive been complimented by coaches....

One game sticks out... it was a very physical game and the coaches were complaining alot... the problem I was having is that yes.. alot of the kids were falling down but most of it was on thier own.. but.. there were a few calls that could have been made that maybe were not...

I said to my partner at half time "lets tighten this up".

I set the tone right away the second half and the rest went smoothly. The kids stopped flopping on thier own too.

After the game the coach thanked me for taking control.

I know that I should have done that in the first half to begin with.. a rookie mistake that I'm still rectifying, but... at least it was a compliment.

Also have been complimented for my hustle.
