Gloucester City: WHAT THIS FIELD HAS HEARD

\"GloucesterImage via Wikipedia

By CNB Sports

I am feeling my age, I have brown spots all over me but I still remember Coaches Billy Flynn, George Thorpe, Bob Mc Quillen, Carlos Paisley, Steve Shimkus and now Leon Harris. I have seen and heard many things from parents and the players who have crossed the fields of Gloucester City. But, I have remained silent through the years and it is time that parents start to listen.

Everyone has heard about being a fly on the wall. Oh, what you would have heard. If only these walls could talk? Can\’t imagine what secrets they have! Well, after many years of lying around patiently I have decided to let everyone in on a little secret. This field has heard it all!

Gloucester City does not have a large number of home grown professional athletes. That is correct! Very few if any, have made the Big Show in the MLB, NFL or NBA. Yes, that is a fact. Do the research yourself. But, still Gloucester parents refuse to face reality. Your son may be a terrific athlete locally and you should be proud of that. But, on a larger level your son is in the majority of athletes whose career was limited to local competition.
