Dear Mr. Kleats:
My name is Boyd Taylor and I am the parent of Suzy Taylor. Being the only coach I realize that instructing the girls can be difficult. There are a few concerns I wanted to bring to your attention.
Some of the parents, including myself, have noticed that you have been having trouble getting to practice on time. We do realize that you are a busy person and that coaching is taken out of your own time but it would be very helpful if you could be earlier or let us help for the beginning.

Any Given Weekday
Faint chanting surrounds the field, the coach is hoarse on the side lines and the team is putting in a extremely moderate effort. The score is tied... for the first 5 minutes. This sets the stage for a very familiar school activity, sports. Whether its backwards football, competitive running, grass hockey, or wimpy tennis the students at Princess Margaret Secondary School try their best in all of them.
Now some may say our school teams aren't very successful and describe them using the "S" word, suck, but in reality a lot of work goes into being such average athletes. For example the basketball and volleyball teams put in so much effort doing suicides, laps and generally hard work. The problem that lies within this is the end result. What is it for? Because in the end the only thing to show for it is a hunk of shiny metal and a memory. While the average teams will move on because there's no disappointment when there's no plan on winning.
When the teams drag their feet to the field. The fans start coming out and take their places on the balding field. The fans sit expectantly, but with low expectations because that way they will always be impressed, some what. Although we may not succeed in many sports our school succeeds in mediocrity.
