Today marked the end of our time at Camp Tumble Smart, and in the midst of all the coaching and learning, one thing stood out—the magic of making connections. Leading the charge was Cedric, a coach whose talent for bringing people together left a big impression on us.
As we wrapped up our activities for the day, Cedric's knack for connecting with athletes, parents, and coaches became crystal clear. When we decided to grab a late-night bite in Broken Arrow, OK, Cedric showed his people skills by striking up a chat with the server. The conversation quickly took off, and before we knew it, we had a whole gang of new friends.
What really got me was Cedric's dedication to forging bonds beyond the gym. Back at the clinic, he didn't just talk to athletes—he made time for parents too, creating a vibe of togetherness and support. It reminded me that coaching isn't just about teaching flips—it's about building relationships that help athletes shine, both on and off the mat.
Today's experience showed me just how important connections are in coaching. Cedric's talent for bringing people together lit up the room, showing us all how much stronger we are when we stick together. As we look back on the day, let's keep Cedric's warmth, kindness, and sense of community close to heart, knowing that it's these connections that help us grow and succeed.
Cedric, your lesson in the power of connection has left a lasting impression on all of us. Thanks for showing us the difference a little kindness can make.
