Since the beginning, 2017, when Mike decided to follow God and started OTM, he invited me. Been part of the OTM family since then. I started off as one of Mike’s basketball coaches, then leading and becoming a head coach, and then later led my own team as OTM grew and expanded to various basketball camps.
As a leader on OTM, I had more responsibilities than just being a coach running the drills. I made sure each team member was taken care of during the camp, making sure they know what they are doing, but also outside of the camp, I made sure everyone is getting enough rest, made sure everyone’s needs are taken care of, fed, everyone’s laundry is getting done, taking showers on the clock, making sure everyone is doing well. Basically I made sure everyone is doing well and prepared for each day’s camps. Making sure everyone is ok and the team is cohesive and unified. I delegated tasks to team members to take care of the trip finances, transportation routes, lodging details, etc. it was a big responsibility dealing with our Japanese hosts, making sure we are meeting the needs of our host, and achieve our goals which are to spread hope and joy in Japan.
