When I was a kid, my mum coached our netball team. Shed never played, and taught herself the rules with a tattered paperback shed borrowed from the library. She only signed up because nobody else would. At first I was proud she was so committed to my sporting life that shed coach a game shed never played. But that soon changed.Some days it was the best having her around. She was funny and kind and the other girls loved her. But some days I hated how being the coachs daughter made me stand apart. Plus, her obsession with fairness meant I rarely played the position I wanted, lest it be seen as favoritism. And I could forget ever winning most valuable player.So when my daughter started a netball team and they needed a coach, I fled. The last thing I wanted was for my daughter to feel as confused as Id felt as a teenager. My feelings about all that changed quickly.My mum, whod been fighting?cancer for 18 months, died. Suddenly, my rock, someone Id relied on, was gone. That hit home when I undertook the wrenching task of sorting through her possessions and a million memories surfaced. Among them, a photograph?of her and I taken on the day we won our first netball championship back in 1982. I was 12, tall and slim with a long ponytail and a grin from ear to ear. Mum was next to me, wearing a grin equal to my own. I hadnt seen that photo for a long time. And it rocked me. It made me realize that I wasnt just grieving my mums death, I was grieving the loss of being a child.With her gone, nobody knew when my first tooth had fallen out, or how I cried after my boyfriend dumped me. That part of my history was lost. I ached for some connection to it. I hoped that maybe if I could coach like she had, some link to my past would still live.At the first few training sessions I was terrified. The kids were learning the game, I was learning how to coach, and somewhere a ghost of my mum hovered on the sidelines smiling at the whole catastrophe. When my daughter flashed a look of fury my way during a game, I realized we needed some ground rules. I agreed that fairness meant letting her play the position she liked as often as the rest of the girls, and she agreed not to think she could get away with stuff just because we were related.Coaching was something I took on for personal reasons, to try to be close to a mum who was no longer here. I never expected to actually enjoy it. Three years in, I have discovered more about myself than I thought possible.Ive rediscovered a love of netball and now play again in an adult team. Ive uncovered a love of teaching and most weeks look forward to training nights when I can help the girls to learn new skills and strive to improve. And Ive realized that mum never coached to learn about netball, or to help us win championships. She coached to be close to me and show she cared. Even if Im not the greatest coach in the world, thats exactly why Im doing it too.Thats what I lost when she died. Not my childhood memories or a connection to my past, but someone to teach me how to be a mother. Perhaps by finding that photograph my mums parenting choices and style have found a way to live on. Just like netball gave mum and I the way to share belonging to a team, I now get to share my daughters special world. It also gives me rare insight into her friendships and closeness with her friends that I wouldnt otherwise have.They call me (affectionately, I hope) the hugger, because so often with a tween-aged team of 10 girls, there are tears. Someone is always feeling something strongly, and more often than not my role is to sit, listen and counsel. I not only coach them netball skills but also friendship skills.When mum died an old friend that I hadnt seen in many years contacted me via email. She told me how jealous shed been of my relationship with my mum when she was a teenager, because my mum was one of those involved mums who was always there, and always approachable. I think coaching did that.At the time I never noticed, but now that Im in the same boat, I see how lucky I am. Granted my daughter doesnt always like that Im her coach, but sometimes she does, and for now, those rare times are enough. Hopefully when shes grown up and Im gone, shell look back as fondly as I do and maybe coach her daughters team too.Nova Weetman lives in Melbourne, Australia.

One game after a miserable showing in Oklahoma City, Gay tied a career high with 41 points and the Sacramento Kings cruised to a 114-97 victory at the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. Quality rather than quantity is the key for Sydney speedster Gary Rohan as he builds confidence in his injury-prone body.Rohans blinding pace and ability to change games with a moment of magic has made him a massive crowd favourite with Swans fansThey havent seen as much of him as they would have liked, as Rohan has amassed just 71 games in almost seven full seasons.He played just 27 games in his first four years and hasnt played more than 18 in a season, and at best will only equal that total this year.A hamstring tendon issue kept him out of the senior side this year till round nine, but hes been making up for lost time.He has notched a number of career-best statistics this year and was particularly effective over the last month.Rohan bagged a personal best four-goal haul against Hawthorn and a week later tallied a career-high eight tackles.Im getting confidence back in my body and playing pretty well, Rohan told AAP.The big thing Im working on is consistent footy and so far so good.Ive only played half of the games so Im still pretty fresh.ddddddddddddAfter the Carlton game, Sydney coach John Longmire agreed Rohan had the same kind of ability to impact on games as Hawthorn maestro Cyril Rioli.Like the Hawks champ, Rohan has the ability to do a lot with a little, as hes not a big possession getter.Hes averaged just 10 possessions a game throughout his career.Every time I go near the ball Ive got to try and have an impact on the game, I dont get many possessions, Rohan said.In the Carlton game I was not having much of an influence, so the defensive side of my game I stepped up in the third quarter.I stuck a couple of tackles and got myself back in the game that way.Rohans speed is being harnessed as a way of harassing opposing defenders, it hasnt compromised his attacking ability.He has kicked 13 goals this year, equalling his best output for an entire season (2015).
