One of the most gratifying things about running TGA for more than 10 years is seeing former students grow up and become TGA coaches. We now have 40 former students who have coached at TGA after-school classes or camps or will begin coaching this month.
Some are elite players, including three-time Division 3 high school state champion Danielle Staskowski (Notre Dame Prep). Many others qualified for the state tournament, while others are proud to participate on varsity and junior varsity teams. All of them share a passion for the game and a commitment to giving back to TGA kids.
It is truly a pleasure to watch them mature and gain valuable experience. For many of them, this is their first job. Congratulations to all of the former students listed below:
