    All,
     
    I want to share a story about the kind of people we have in this sport.  Last Saturday Greenfield had a young lady injured in a match at New Palestine High School.  It was a head and neck injury that required her to be transported to the hospital via ambulance.  She and her parents had never been through something like this before and were justifiably shaken.  
     
    On Tuesday of this week I was called down to the athletic office.  We had received a package.  It was a box of flowers addressed to the young lady who was injured.  They were sent from the Columbia City Wrestling Program.  I know it's a little thing and some people may not understand, but it touched me and my program.
     
    People think wrestling is about working hard, sweating, bleeding, beating on people, etc..., but it's not.  It's above LOVING each other.  I wan't to thank Columbia City for giving my program an example of how people are supposed to love each other.
     
    Thank you!

    Holden got a reaction from Misty Kendrex in Coaching stipends and other info for girls wrestling   
    In Greenfield we have a girls head coach (Male) and possibly two assistants (both female).  Our AD is working on a stipend for the head coach and we usually pay other assistants out of our club funds.
     
    Last year we went to the 6 all girls tournaments that were offered around the state and the girls wrestled and our 6 duals when we could get them a match.
     
    We are looking at 10-15 girls this season.  They practice at same time as us, but will separate for part of the practice.

    Yup.  I took it years ago.  I spoke with the InSideOut coaching people yesterday.  They are coming out with a coaches course in the summer.  I may look into that.  I read the book and it was awesome.
     
    Thanks for the suggestion.
