NewsVineBETTER LUCK NEXT YEAR!
By Dwight Short
My first overseas mission coaching assignment was in basketball against a Prep School team in Mombasa, Kenya. The boy's team was coached by a female French teacher who had a better knowledge of French than basketball. As we warmed up, our kids naturally were looking over their shoulders to scout our opponents. They were disorganized at the least and did not exhibit many basketball skills during their warm-ups. Our players walked over to their team and introduced themselves and wished them well. They indicated that their best player hadn't arrived yet but they told us to watch out when Oliver gets on the floor!
