YHC Spent the better part of Sunday, 0745-1700 at my 2.1’s Volleyball Tournament in Greensboro. Let’s just say that sitting in a warehouse type building with hundreds of 12 yr old volleyball players and their parents screaming is not ideal. With volleyball on the mind, it had to be incorporated into the beatdown… that is, if YHC could muster the mental fortitude to do it!

CoT

  • YHC spoke about how communication and comraderie are vital in Volleyball. Which is why we did AMEAP to allow lots of 2ndF.
  • YHC spoke about the joys of fatherhood, and even though the tournament was rough yesterday, I enjoy bonding with my daughter over it. I enjoy the learning and growing and discussion we have that comes from it.
  • Prayers for lambchop’s baby coming tomorrow, and guidance for the doctors and that lamb chop be there for Kelly however she needs him to be there (even if it means missing F3).!
  • Praise for Schlitz wife and newborn, prayer for continued health.
  • Prayer for Lambchop’s friend Antonio who got in a wreck over the weekend.
  • Prayers for Green Acres continued treatments. 

 

NMM

  • Volleyball is a hugely mental game, and the success of a team revolves around communication. This is why YHC thought it’d be nice to allow the PAX to communicate instead of counting the whole time. 
  • AMRAP reps also allowed for a great UvU style workout. If a PAX wanted to do 50 burpees, they could. If another wanted to do 5, they could! Plus 2 miles of running!
  •  Every man who posted contributed to solid MC, while also putting in good work! And it was an honor for Lambchop to choose YHC as his last Q before fatherhood!

 

Thanks for posting men, I appreciate each and every one of you. #TClaps on the strong work you all put in! Crash, the Keys were given to Lambchop as a gift for his newborn. Didn’t think that one through all the way… Bill me for the new set!
