โI donโt pay for my boys to do sports. Personally, I could care less about the โsportโ they choose.
So, if Iโm not paying for sports what AM I paying for?
๐We pay for the days when our boys come home from school and are too tired to go to practice but they go anyway.
๐We pay for the boys to learn to be disciplined, focused and dedicated.
โพ๏ธWe pay for our boys to learn how to take care of their bodies and learn how to correctly fuel and recover for success.
๐ฅ
We pay for our boys to work with others, how to be a good team mate, gracious in defeat and humble in success.
๐ฅWe pay for the boys to learn to deal with disappointment, when they donโt get the outcome theyโd hoped for, but they still go back week after week giving it their best shot.
๐๐ปWe pay for the boys to learn to make and accomplish goals.
๐ปWe pay for the boys to respect not only themselves but others, officials, judges and coaches.
๐We pay for them to learn that it takes hours and hours, years and years of hard work and practice to create a champion and that success does not happen overnight.
โจWe pay for them to be proud of small achievements and to work toward long term goals.
๐We pay for our boys to have the opportunity to make life long friendships, create forever memories and to be as proud of their achievements as we are.
๐We pay for the rides home where we have uninterrupted intentional conversation
โฐWe pay so the boys can learn the importance of time management and balancing important things like grades and chores.
๐ซWe donโt pay for sports; we pay for the opportunities that sports provide our boys to develop skills that will serve them well throughout their lives and give them the opportunity to bless the lives of others.
๐So far, itโs turning out to be a great investment.โ
