The Seasons Are Upon Us...

Nothing like a rainy day to flood we toiling souls at LA Scores with vast waves of optimism as the soccer season looms a mere seven days away. If it seems like I'm laying it on thick, it's only because I am excited. EXCITED!!! Last night, we held our Fall Coach Training at the Boys and Girls Club of Venice (the very same place we hold our weekly alumni indoor games) and the coaches were able to meet one another and schmooze and have pizza. Cant ask for more than that. Our Training attendees held many veterans with the exception of Shannon Huang, the Americorps Vista I mentioned in the previous entry; Nahoul Gonzalez, who is the new girls coach at Charnock Elementary and the first LA Scores alumni hired to be a coach; and Samantha Kowalski, who is joining the company as a new poetry coach at Palms Elementary. The coaches seem to be happy with the organization, but the organization is certainly happy with the team of coaches who will help lead America Scores LA to the next evolutionary stage.
