Windham Sports Pages Forums
Would like to see all
Coaches from the youth to the varsity
programs in all sports passing along info to
the Windham Sports Pages in recognizing
their teams and individual players.
Does not take much to pick up the phone and
call him or even email the specifics to
Chris Spaulding so we can all read about
games played or even about the individual
team members who play a role on their teams
in many different ways.
Very proud of my
players the way they played in the
Scarborough Holiday Classic.
These 5th graders stepped up playing without
one of their leading scorers and team
leaders who is hurt in getting to the
Championship game with tremendous heart.
Topsham coach made comment to me that the
Windham kids hustle like no other team that
he has played this year and is a team that
they would rather not match up with when the
double elimination seventeen team tournament
comes at the end of the regular season
schedule for the Freeport Travel League.
Great job!!
