I see you

Hey kid I see you. 

I see you sitting on the bench the entire game. 

I see you cheering for your teammates on the court. 

I see you volunteering to do the lines. 

I see you. 

I see you stand up at the time out and watch my face and listen to my words. 

I see you look at the line up that doesn't have your name on it.  

I see you lead the team in the cheer. 

I see you. 

I see you show up to practice on time. 

I see you giving 100%.  

I see you trying. 

I see you. 

You may not have been on the floor when your teammates won. You may not have any stats by your name at the end of the game. You may not need to wash your jersey at the end of the match. But YOU are why we win. 

You recognize that fair doesn't mean same playing time. You get what TEAM is. You, are awesome. 

In a world where most are awarded for just signing up, you do more than that. You celebrate the wins and allow your heart to break on the losses. You see yourself as a part of the whole. And guess what... You are. 

I see you. 

Thank you for being someone to watch. 

You have already won. 

Love, 

Your coach
