First coaching gig

April 29, 2004 ·  

I’ve been appointed coach of the Porepunkah Primary School football team. Dude told me I had the job when he came home from school tonight, excited by the prospect that he might actually get to line up at full forward.

When filling out his permission slip for the carnival in Myrtleford I scribbled a note that I was available to help if needed.

Surprised at my elevation to the prestigious, keenly contested coaching position, I phoned the teacher for confirmation.

Indeed I am required to “pull a few moves” from the sidelines, at least while Barry umpires one of the games!

I told Dude that he won’t be playing full forward. He’s too small. I didn’t tell him that though, just that he’s fit and a fast runner, so he should play on the wing.
