Take a journey with us through @OfficialMissVal's time at UCLA. Miss Val - on behalf of every soul you've touched over your 36 years as a Bruin, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We love you.

I'm not a Bruin nor a gymnast, but Valorie Kondos Field is a legend and it is truly the end of an era in collegiate athletics. Miss Val, you've left some really big shoes to fill and I wish your new coach the best of luck, and I wish you the best of luck wherever life takes you.

amber parham Jordyn's not the new coach. She is now the head coach at Arkansas. Chris Waller, assistant coach, is now the head coach. Good choice b/c he is a world class gymnast and a great coach and can carry on the legacy created by Miss Val.
@Girlsttal25 жыл бұрын
@@Girlsttal2 Better him then Jordyn at this stage. That's not to say Jordyn would be bad. But Chris is much older and would be better with keep the legacy going. Jordyn can build her own legacy as a head coach at Arkansas with out having the shadow of Vals legacy over her. In 15 years she could end up back at UCLA as the head coach. Many young coaches no matter the sport are better off building there own legacy at a different school.

I just want to highlight that you didn’t even need to be one of her students to be touched by her incredible positive atitude. I have been following UCLA and Miss Val for the past 5 years on line - and even on my darkest days, the routines, the smiles and her words of encouragement made me want to make the most of my days, even when I thought I no longer could. Thank you Miss Val. Your legacy is all the lives you touch, and a lot of them you are not even aware of. Lots of love x

I then became interested in who was teaching and leading all that greatness so I’ve watched many of these videos....dance party goodbye had me bawling by the way! These women were more than lucky to have you in their lives and I don’t doubt for a moment they will never forget you. I don’t know you, but I will miss you and I wish you all the love and success you have earned so gracefully.....thank you.
So touching .
