I want to say congrats to the beaumont players and coaches on a great year and impressive weekend. What a top notch group of kids and coaches. My son (from nederland) was fortunate enough to play with the Bmt. team this weekend. I will say the coaches and kids were very pleasant to deal with. My son made new friends with several on the team and talked about how nice they were. As far as whether this was a select team or the beaumont blue, what I say won't matter. For what it is worth, I think that beaumont could have won without the extra players. Thanks for allowing my son to play as well as the other nederland boys. They all had a great time and it was a great experience. I for one am very critical of coaches in all sports, and I was impressed with how the beaumont coaches handled the group of boys and got them to respond. My son was fortunate enough to have an excellent coach (in regular season)that tought fundamentals which benefited our team this year. we didn't have the greatest atheletes, but ended up having a great season becuase our boys learned the basics. I saw that same quality in the beaumont blue coaches in the one week my son practiced with them getting ready for the national championship. Thanks
