Dan, thanks for writing and sharing this article, it was a pleasure to read.

Your final sentence left me feeling so happy knowing that your nine year old son was so excited to receive a high five from Sam and that your son got to sing the song after his team's win. And no doubt, I'm sure as a parent, it would have given you great joy to witness this. This shared experience will be a memory for both you and your son to talk about and remember for many years to come.

Go Hawks!!!

Thanks Tammy. I think Sammy has really changed the culture of the club and has been so welcoming. I constantly hear about and from him the things that he has initiated that makes me feel proud of our club. I think the way he smiled at supporters and celebrated will leave a lasting memory! With Andy Gowers as president there has been a dramatic change in the culture that is far more welcoming. I am not by any stretch of the imagination saying our previous senior people did a poor job but I think they did lose a bit of direction and bigger vision.
