- Welcome to the Kidz n Sports Hall of Fame...These are the people that have made Kidz n Sports great, my guests. For some we have pictures and some we
don't. Just remember, you could be next...or your coach...or your best friend. Oh man, I've got to come up with a different title than "hall of fame." How
about sending me your suggestions. Make it fresh, invigorating, and worthy of the fine guests that have joined me on Kidz n Sports. Send your emails to
coachmike@kidznsports.com.
