YoungGents Words of the week: Week 1


"If you win, do not brag: if you lose, do not show anger "
We sometime see winning being, greater and better then the next person. We must learn how to become a team on and off the court. Be you and show other how to become their self by doing good things and deeds. Remember you are a role model to someone else without even knowing.

Words of the Week:
The words of the week are encouraging words that we send the young men each week to empower them to move forward toward their goals, and make wise choices concerning any negative peer pressures that they may face. By giving our young men powerful words of affirmation, will enable them to see life in a way that they can share and bring some form of peace to their lives.   The words of the week are issued each Tuesday.  Once we have a monthly session, we will ask the young men, how the Words of the week impacted their lives and why.  We will share comments with the world and hope that it will bring some positive influences to another young man’s life.
