so my 2 friends who were starting a team at farragut did not end up suceeding and one gave up. so, i took her spot and my other friend continues to try and work the money issues while i do more with getting sponsers and doing the things through the school, although she most definetly does more than her fair share!!!!
since our original sponsor was unable to fulfill the commitment to 3-4 practices a week and 5 games, 2 of which away (nashville or chatanoooga or atlanta) and 3 home, we are going to try and do 2 things. they are, convince our athletic director not to require the teachers to be at away games, and 2nd, get 3 teacher sponsors instead of 1, so they each go to one practice a week.
originally, we were alll under the impression teachers did not need 2 b at EVERYTHING the team did, since that is what the other teams always end up doing if there sponsor is not the coach, but technically they are supposed to be there, so we are not allowed to tell them in reality no one cares if there not there.
this whole ordeal has been a little bit frustrating and a bit harder than i thought it would be, but very rewarding also,we hope very soon it will be all worth it, and well get a team! i can only imagine how rewarding it will be to have our hard work pay off :) the season starts in a month, and most of the people on the team will not have ever played before so we really need 2 get moving!!! haha this team will be a learning experiance for us all :) and make hisstory by being the first in knox county! and maybe even more im not sure, i sure am glad i got convinced to give this a try!
