My son’s baseball coach is very helpful & patient.
My name is Hayden and my dad is the greatest coach I have ever had. My dad, John Sullivan has been coaching me for as long as i have been playing baseball from T-Ball to my last year in little league he has been helping out. I am no longer in Little League and am now playing in middle school sports and will soon be off to high school. But, myself being out of Little League has not stopped my dad from coaching it. He is now coaching my younger brother Liam and has led them to the championship which will be taking place this Friday. My dad does not even stop during the summer either he coached my summer tournament teams as well as my brothers. My brother is 11 and will be playing for the 10-11 tournament tem during this summer. Hopefully this summer will be successful for my dad, my brother and everyone else who is playing/supporting our team.
My husband, John Sullivan has coached East Greenwich Little League in Rhode Island for 8 years now. He is by far the best coach, anyone could ever ask for. Growing up, with seven siblings, John did not get a lot of time to spend with his dad. His dad was busy working two to three jobs, just to keep food on the table. So, when John had boys of his own, he wanted to change that. He wanted to make memories, through a sport that he loves.
John is patient with his players, but tough when he as to be. He has spent many hours in front of the computer, figuring out line ups, and finding inspirational sports videos that he emails to his players. Each boy gets a nickname, and most have stuck years later. No one has the interest of the player more than my husband. He wants them to leave the season with baseball knowledge, friendships, and great memories.
A couple of years ago, one of his players lost his dad. John was heartbroken. This boy was by far one of his favorites, and he was afraid he would lose his spirit for life, as well as the game. John looked after that boy as if he was his own. He cared for him on the field, just has his dad would have been if he had been there. No one was a bigger cheerleader for him. The boy wasn’t the MVP of the season, but ended up with the sportsmanship of the year award. I can’t help to think my caring husband had something to do with that.
This weekend we are going to the championship. It has been the first time since 2008 that John Sullivan’s Blue Jays will be there. When I asked him what he wanted for father’s day this is what he said…..”nothing, just a Blue Jays win,” Typical Sully, hopefully he will get one. He’s still a little boy at heart, I would love nothing more than to see him throw out that first pitch at the Little League World Series, so one of his boyhood dreams could come true.
