Thanks Dominic!

I'm coaching my four-year-old son's kindergarten soccer team.
We had our first game and practice last night.
It is the first time I have coached any kind of sport.
It is also the first time my son has played a team sport.
I was so proud that he scored the first goal!
What made the the night really great though happened after the game.

As kids and parents were leaving and I was walking back to the car with my son, one of other players, Dominic, passed by with his parents and with an excited face yelled "thanks coach!"
I can't tell about how cool a feeling that is and the spring it has put into my step today!
We talk all the time about having a mentor or coach in your professional life.
It is one thing to be a coach or mentor for another adult, however
if you haven't served in that capacity in some way for a kid I really recommend it.
No matter what Dominic does in his athletic career or I do in my coaching career, I'll always be known as "Coach K" to him.
That is a cool feeling.
Thanks Dominic!
