Coach Says Goodbye! An Emotional Farewell Speech!

This is a moment I knew would come. It tells me that my memorable innings here as Coach is coming to an end.

I am thankful to God to have led such a talented team on this journey of transformation. This change was never easy. It challenged my abilities to the limit and tested my perseverance to the breaking point.

As I look back I see that this journey was a learning process not only for you; but more so for me. I learned to be more compassionate even when making no compromise on matters of discipline. And let me tell you, that balancing act was never easy.

At the early stages of my tenure here, many of you did not believe that you had the potential to be winners. Instead you mirrored what your critics said. You voiced aloud the negatives that others whispered in your ears. But soon you learned to shut your ears to all that and focus on just winning and nothing else.

Now it is time to say goodbye. Some things in life are not decided by logic, but by the dictates of the heart.  Today I step down because I know with certainty that you can go ahead without me.
And now I get time to spend with my wife and kids. After having taught you to be the best how can I fail to set you an example in the arena where I cannot afford to lose?

The band is playing; the flags are fluttering; and kids are playing football here in the ground. But to me, it is time to walk away; to say goodbye with the knowledge that I have done my best; and by the grace of God have brought to the limelight a few who otherwise would have dwelt in the shadows; undiscovered and not valued.

So with a thankful heart, let me say goodbye. It breaks my heart to think that I will not walk with you one more time to these grounds that holds so precious memories to me. But that is how life is. The show has to go on; the torch has to be passed, and new leadership has to take over.

Thank you one and all for all the support you gave me over the years.

Jesus Is Risen!
