Make A Difference Minute: Building a Foundation That Lasts

On this Make a Difference Minute, Coach Tremaine Edwards of Liberty Middle School shares why making a difference in a young person’s life goes far beyond coaching a sport.

For Coach Edwards, it’s about building character, teaching respect, encouraging communication, and helping young people develop a strong foundation for life. He understands that children will make mistakes along the way, but he believes the lessons they learn from caring adults can help guide them back in the right direction.

One thing that stands out to me is his desire to give students the guidance and encouragement he wishes he had received when he was growing up. He wants to be the coach they remember years from now, not simply because of what he taught them on the field, but because of how he helped them become better people.

That’s the kind of influence that can last a lifetime.
