It’s a good thing I enjoy basketball. Both of my kids play, I coach, and I announce all of the high school basketball games at a local high school. It’s a very busy time of the year. It seems like all I get done when I’m not at work is either running kids to and from practice or announcing basketball games. There are so many parents that do this too! Some parents have multiple kids playing at differnt sites on the same day…I don’t know how they get too all of them, but they do! I do enjoy announcing games though. I get one of the best seats in the house and I get to listen to the coaches break things down during time-outs. I also enjoy coaching…most of the time I coach little kids, the 7-10 year olds. The best is when you teach them something and they realize what you’re talking about. The light goes on and they’ve got it. And sometimes I just enjoy being a Dad in the stands. I don’t have to announce or coach…I just get to watch them perform. That’s always fun too. If you get a chance to be involved in what your kids are doing, take advantage of it. Your kids will remember it as well. Time goes really fast!
