Bulldog Testimonial
Just wanted to share what my son told me today. He played as the Firebirds goalie during our game Saturday morning. I asked him how he enjoyed the tournament. He said that the Hagerstown team was really nice. I asked him why and he said that your players always said something positive to him after he made a play.
I always try to remind him that the players on the other team are kids just like him, trying to learn, have fun and get better. Thank your coaches for the sportsmanship and positive comments displayed by your kids.
