Volunteering for Sports Made Possible
My name is Brandon Minshall. I am twelve years old and this is my first time volunteering for this program. I have a cousin that has CP. She told me how much fun she had playing T-ball. I came to watch her play and I was hooked. I saw how much fun everyone was having. The helpers were laughing as much as the players were. I wanted to be involved.
I have fun helping. The kids are wonderful. It makes me feel good just to be around these special players. Their parents really enjoy having helpers that are there for the kids and not just for goofing around.
Although it is a game, I need to take it seriously because if I goof off, someone can get hurt. The players and their parents are counting on me. Even though it can be tough, I enjoy every game I get to be with these special athletes.
I can’t wait until the next session.
