This year I am playing and coaching for the Liffey Celtics. So far I am really loving it here! Everyone in the Celtics club is so friendly and generous. We have been training with our new coach Mark Byrne four days a week and the practice sessions have had great intensity and everyones working really hard to get better as a team. We have had a couple of scrimmages which was really nice to be able to play against other players rather than our own teammates. The scrimmages are going really well! We are able to see what our strengths are and what we need to work on before the season starts. I also really like the girls on my team they are a lot of fun to be around on and off the court. 

 

I am very excited to be coaching two teams this year for the Liffey Celtics! I am coaching an under 12 team and an under 18 team. I am excited to be coaching the under 12 teams to be able to help and develop the girls fundamental skills. Then working with the under 18 team will be more focused on the x’s and o’s of basketball. I am hoping that being with the two different age groups will help me develop to become a better all around coach. I am really looking forward to being a part of this Liffey Celtics Club!
