  5. A Great Experience Location: Great Places, Great Competition Information: Clear, Honest, Positive Memories: Things you will reflect upon years from now and use to describe ‘why you played’.

  6. Alumni Thoughts Advice to Parents/Players: 1. Be a good teammate because Sprout will give you your chance. 2. If your son isn't playing, don't be that parent that goes and talks to the coach about it, this is player-coach conversation. 3. Show up to every practice with the willingness to take constructive criticism, learn about the game, and work on the game with a focused mindset 4. Parents, get to as many games as possible and get involved however you can. It means more than you know. 5. For those on the section roster last year, remember how much it hurt after that last game at CHS and use that for motivation this year and pass it on to those younger kids that weren't there.

  7. Alumni Thoughts What does our program do that makes it great? 1. It was evident that our team was always more ready to go for game 1 than all the other programs 2. Our program is still in its early stages, I would say that the best part about it is that it has the ability to be shaped into whatever form the coaches and, especially the players, want to make it. 3. What makes our program great is that we have coaches that want us to win but most importantly have fun 4. I was always really impressed with indoor practices once the season started. For having 4 grade levels combined in one gym, kids got a ton of work in.

  8. Alumni Thoughts What memories of our program will you think back to 40 years from now? 1.I am going to remember my best friends that I made my freshman year on baseball field. 2.Winning the conference my senior year was a feeling I’ll never forget. 3.Every coach deeply cares about his players both on and off the field. I can’t say that about any other program I’ve played at I didn’t get a sense of that from Saints Development, Blizzard, UST. To them it was all about money and winning. Even after graduating, I still run into old coaches from East Ridge. They’re always super excited to talk with me for a quick 5 minutes and catch up. I’ve seen Hartung, Nelson, Kangas, Hagen, probably more that I’m forgetting. Every single time they take a second and come talk to me for a while. I had a conversation with Toz last spring and we caught up a little bit on what’s going on with each other. It’s the little stuff like that that sets this program aside. I felt that my coaches weren’t just there to collect a paycheck.

  9. Senior Leaders 1.Why do you play? 2.How can parents ‘assist’ and make this a great year? Not a great year? 3.How has this program helped you grow as a person? as a Player? 4.Advice for 9thgraders on how to be a part of the program…..daily and overall….
