A Letter from Coach Bolding
Welcome to Columbine High School’s gym, home of the REBELS! I am honored to have the opportunity to serve as the head girls’ basketball coach. The coaching staff will model the dedication, self-sacrifice, hard work, resiliency and sportsmanship we hope to instill in our athletes. We take a comprehensive approach in creating an atmosphere where players are continuously pushed, encouraged, valued, respected, while putting their welfare and success as our primary objective. We want our players to succeed academically and athletically while teaching skills that transfer into everyday life. We will operate with high expectations of all our representatives: coaches, players, booster club members, parents, fans and feeder team players, in developing a sense of pride to be a part of the Columbine Girls’ Basketball program. We are deeply committed to our players, Columbine High School, and the Columbine community. Special thanks and appreciation goes out to teachers, staff, the Columbine community, family and friends for all you do in support of the girls’ program. Also, a big thanks to this year’s program sponsors for your support. You all are an integral part of the success of our program!
Go Rebels!
