What
Kids, Coaches and Administrators are Saying...
“Tremendous
job!! Our coaching staff,
the players and former Red Sox All Star Chuck Schilling were impressed.
The expertise and confidence shown by Rusty
Torres and Mr. Doyle was outstanding.
We at Miller Place are lucky to have been exposed to your
excellent program. Thank
you very much.”
Bill Brown,
Athletic Director
“What
a pleasure it was having you at Roosevelt H.S. (Bronx, NY).
The players were thrilled to meet and learn from a big
league ballplayer. Your
compassion and love for the game and children were definitely displayed
and we can only pass on our gratitude.
Thank you again for being there for my kids!”
Steve
Mazzola, Varsity Baseball Coach “This
was a great experience for our kids, and we welcome Winning Beyond
Winning back to Floral Park Little League.”
Al
Cappelli, Vice-President
“Mr.
Torres offered students an opportunity to learn about the self-sacrifice
and commitment it takes to play a professional sport.
The presentation addressed the issue of leadership as it pertains
to self-preservation and as a major factor in achieving your goals.
Students can transfer this understanding to their own lives.
The program was most beneficial in that it allowed the students
to come in contact with their dreams.
It gave each child who has aspired to become a professional
athlete a concrete experience to build on.
For many of our students, seeing is believing.”
Arleen
Besner, Principal “Winning
Beyond Winning proved to be a very rewarding experience for all
involved.”
