Coach John Heiydt made the season fantastic for the girls. He was very supportive, understanding, motivational, and encouraged the girls to always do their best! We are going to miss having him as a coach next season as both my girls will still be in U12 and he’s moving up to U14. Thank you Coach John for all your dedication to our team…it’s volunteers like you that make a big difference in the kids experience with a sport…thank you for the positive impact you had on them!

“Everything!!!”
