Congratulations, Megan Marris, our latest Elite Sportswear Coach of the Week. Below is the email we received from Vanessa, telling us why Megan deserved to be Coach of the Week.
I would like to nominate Coach Megan Marris.
Megan voluntee…red to coach the first ever girls volleyball team at Michael Strembitsky School. Because the school was new, she took on 16 girls from grades 6-8 and has worked to tirelessly not only to build a team from the ground up but to teach skills to girls who had never before played the sport.
With Megan’s guidance and dedication, the girls have won almost every game this season and even though they were a junior team, were able to compete against senior teams in tournaments and hold their own. Megan herself is a student but she makes time every week to come to our school to work with the girls. Before every game, the girls form a circle in the middle of the court, wearing the green and blue socks Megan got them before their first game and set goals for the game. They could not have grown this much as players or as a team without her.
Nominated by:
Vanessa LeCaine, Assistant Principal
Michael Strembitsky School
