Moments such as watching friendships being built, skill levels constantly rising and confidence growing in some of my more shy kids.

But no prouder have I been of my team than I was on Saturday, June 11.
While I coach this junior football team, I also play rugby union for the Collie Mongrels Rugby Team, and I was pleasantly surprised as I ran my team onto the Collie High School oval on Saturday afternoon, to find my boys had formed a guard of honour for me and my team to run through at the start of the game.
I have to say it brought a tear to my eye and I can't thank them enough for this.
Well done boys, you made me very happy.
