Courtside


From dawn to dusk they stand impatiently
Waiting for a moment of true inspiration
Determination piled into sixty minutes
Ready and willing to burn calories, yet to be consumed
A ritual, a necessity, a part of local life

Within these walls there are no barriers
Encouragement offered in the form of longevity
Setting the bar above yesterdays performance
Creating obsession alongside satisfaction
Personal goals and a means to an end

Regularity and routine bringing friendship and joy
Standing tall amongst those who may be so much taller
Unlimited success and possibility in every step
Achievements littered through every routine
Courtside, our saving grace and humbling arena
