Impacting the Parents on Your Team



What makes the below testimony even more amazing for me personally is the fact that this team did not have much athletic talent over the past 4 seasons ... they did not win too many games. And yet, their retention rate was nearly 100% over the 4 years ... 

Why keep coming back to a team with little apparent hope of "winning"? The testimony answers that!

...
I do not really have words for the ending of this incredible journey. Although we have moved even further north and would pretty much have been impossible to have made it this year, we would have made the games to support all of you.

Trent and Coaches, you are amazing in spirit and heart. What you have taught these boys will last a lifetime.

What you have taught me, will! You have been an inspiration to me from day 1 and there has never been anything that has impacted me in spirit the way that the Lakota Stallion Family has.

People ask me why I still have my Stallion Football sticker on my car, IT IS STAYING THERE and proudly so!

Trent, you know how I feel about you, I pray daily! I know if anyone will fight through this it will be you.

I am headed to Cleveland Clinic myself in 2 1/2 wks andd as afraid as I am, your heart and spirit make me know it will all be ok.

I miss each and everyone of you and all of the boys and wish all of you the very best.

Connor is not at the point of being able to watch the videos but he will and I will keep them forever. Please take care all!
Mrs. K
