"I was talking to my basketball coach the other day about how summer league was going, and he mentioned that the team was missing two things. He noted that the guys that are replacing me don't get up and down the floor like I did, and that there as a serious drop in rebounding production. I really think that shows how you and your coaches have molded me as a player. I never ran the floor like I needed to until I got into Future Stars. It's such a simple way to get easy points that many of the big men in the game don't see. You really hammered that point home to me, and it made me a better player for it.
As for rebounding, I came into the Future Stars program weighing 160 lbs. soaking wet, and wishing to be on the arc jacking up three pointers. You showed me that if I wanted to compete at a higher level I would have to hit the weights, and learn how to use my body to box out (God gave us a butt to box out...right?)."

"Thanks for a great tournament. We saw some great competition! I wanted to make sure you had my email address. I am still very interested in helping you in Wisconsin. I know that the school season goes fast and before we know it, summer arrives. I've already made some contacts with kids/parents who have played the traditional 'Wisconsin AAU" ball the last few years and are looking for something different, including my 8th grader. I'm sure there is a lot that goest into setting upa new area, and I would love to get going on things to ensure a program like this here. I just got done reading your 32-page information packet. Very organized.
Thanks!"
