Coaches remarks
Ruby has been with me from 8 year old, I always knew she had potential even when we were getting beat . But once she grasped the weight side of things she changed. When I asked her to improve a certain shot she would ..but then go back to the old habit under pressure. She no longer does this. She is a coaches dream. Will train when ever I ask her too. She works so hard I really hope she reaches her full potential.
