Fun & Competitive...

Although I am a Basketball guy at heart and I love our Basketball Leagues, it is our growing coed leagues that have become some of my favorite times of the year…as I often look forward to playing in my soccer and softball games each week. Our leaders and captains have done such a good job at making our coed leagues both fun for everyone and competitive at the same time.

I’ve played in a lot of different leagues and this combination of playing for fun with a competitive atmosphere is not easy to achieve. The atmosphere that we strive for at Shepherd is one of Love no matter how good you are at sports. Our desire is that everyone feels loved while getting to compete in the sport they love or they are learning the sport for the first time. I pray our leagues would always welcome every kind of athlete, as sports are so much more then the win’s and loses.

The Deadlines for both our Coed Soccer and Softball leagues are fast approaching…if you haven’t had a chance to sign up, you need to do so before Monday, January 18.
