One of my favorite Mormon videos. I love the line, "building championship boys" comes first before winning. I also love that you inspire the boys to be the best at THEIR faith. Thank you!
Coach taught our team 35-36 years ago valuable life lessons in Rugby. When knocked down whether broken or bloody, its not how we got into the circumstance that mattered, but our responses in overcoming it in the game that mattered. We were not just boys on a team, but future Men. Growing boys to become men with the sport of Rugby. To become the best we could on the field of life. Over the years successes and failures each of us has had. Larry taught us to try live our best and with no regrets.
"Stay humble,stay healthy and stay forcus"."Building championship boys before building championship teams" This is a great model and that is why these guys won 19 out of 26. God bless you and your boys.
lololol, u guys jealy? Larry Gelwix is the mission president of our area, thought the only thing is that i missed out on all his talks so far for us youth, 2 talks, missed both, i'm sad that i couldn't hear him bear his testimony so yah, now i know how he looks like :D
As followers of Christ, the real symbol of our faith is how we live our lives. These videos show how we are striving to live in such a way that others will want to know Christ because they know us.
@KBone44 I would never buy a product simply based on add. However, if the product on the add was intriguing I would do more research and determine if it was something I really wanted. Its the sample principle with these videos.
They should go on Tour and face New Zealand top school boy rugby teams. Gisborne Boys High school, Hamilton Boys High school, Napier Boys High school, St kentigerns, Rotorua Boys High school, Sacred Heart, Auckland Grammer, Kelston Boys High school, Wesley college, Mount Albert Grammer school and the rest from the South Island.
@KBone44 obviously not, the intentions of these videos are not to convert people, there are a lot of rumors and misconceptions about the LDS faith, these videos are to clear up any of those rumors
"We're a team with Christian values, but a non-denominational team" The same can be said about America. We are a nation of Christian values, but a non-denominational nation. This is why anybody that cries about "seperation of church and state" is wrong. We need a president that won't claim "we are not a Christian nation". We are a Christian nation, but free to be who we please. We need a president with values. We need Mitt Romney.
@miturbinesdurti What about Ron Paul? He thinks that everyone should be able to do what they want, and that the government shouldn't interfere with your rights.
i dont get it... do they really PAY for these videos to keep popping up on the side bar saying "sponsered video"? what a waste. no one would ever convert to mormonism strictly by seeing these "i am a mormon" videos
I loved the movie Forever Strong, but the real man is even more inspiring. Thanks for your example, Coach.

He is the mission president for where I live. He watched me give my first talk last sunday. love that guy.
What an inspiration! We need more coaches and leaders like Larry Gelwix.
"Building championship boys before building championship teams." Great message.
seriously why would you dislike this??? this man is amazing and a wonderful example for everyone!!
After playing rugby for USAFA, I love just about everything about the sport. Coach Gelwix knows that with God, you can do anything - only better!
Great story! We need more coaches who care about their players like this.
What an amazing man and what a Legacy he has left with those young men!

this has nothing to do with Mormonism.
