It is no surprise that Villa Madonna and its current season are sparking the attention of some of the news outlets.

They are a fairly young team with several individuals putting up some impressive stats...showing up on quite a few leader boards!

 

Ironically, one of the unique interpersonal dynamics surrounding the team is the relationship of Coach Meier with his 3 daughters, Alexa, Brooke and Camdyn, all members of the team!

 

Yesterday, Kaci from TWC CN2 went to the field to interview Coach Meier and his daughters on how things work with having Dad for coach and sisters for teammates.

 

This sports segment with interviews and game footage airs tonight at 6:30pm and 10:30pm on CN2.

 

Great job Coach Meier and Meier girls...we are excited and intrigued about what each of you has to say regarding Coach Dad and teammate sisters!!!

Awesome!! I will try and catch that interview. Glad to see the program moving in the right Direction :thumb:

That is awesome. That should get them pumped. Just maybe, they'll be the face of getting more young girls to come play softball. Keep up the good work and I enjoy reading about your program going in the right direction.

Good stuff, Dave's an all-around good guy.

 

Ironically, last year NewCath had myself, as well as, Chris Schreiber & Andy Zimmerman with 3 daughters playing between Frosh, JV, Varsity. This year Chris and Andy still have 3.

 

As a coach, having your daughters on the team is good and bad.......depending how you handle it.

Ok, I watched it and started laughing about how Brooke says dad isn't allowed on the mound. I think all girls probably think that about there dad especially if he's the coach:) I picture my daughter rolling her eyes at me, then laughing and saying she's joking. The best thing was to hear how all the girls feel like family and that is so much better than a win, b/c when you stick together you've already won. #Good Stuff!!!!!!!

TWC just put out the link for the Villa interview on their website:
