12702550, as a Christian and a coach, my teams thank God, regardless.

the prayer, pre-game (and sometimes we forget. its not ritual, but we usually try to do it).

"Lord, please let us be free from injury, and let everyone have safe travels to and from the game. please let our attitudes and everything we think, say and do be pleasing in your sight. let BOTH teams play to the best of our abilities. Amen".

and the post-game prayer is pretty much the same, except we're thanking him for no major injuries, and for traveling mercies.

we just got BLOWED out tonight,65-24 (playing a VERY good girls varsity team and we're a JV team that plays up). and we thanked God for that afterward, for no one getting hurt, and that we learn from the game (iron sharpens iron).




peace & blessings,
