Coach Fooly had a very productive day. He wore 3 different hats today. He helped coach Jaden this morning at 8 am. At 11am, he put his boxer’s hat or one could say head gear lol on, and we went to to work with their professionals, and then at 3pm, he referee’d his first bout. We are very proud and lucky to have such a hungry leader at such a young age. His thirst for knowledge is very special. We love him almost as much as he loves helping the local kids. He is also a barber at in case you need a clean up. This is just a post saying how proud of him we are, and we are lucky to have him.
