Lee has over 25 years of coaching experience in the areas of basketball, fast pitch softball and volleyball within the organizations of homeschooling, community, and club teams. She is proud of her contribution in the pioneering efforts of competitive girl’s athletics within the homeschooling community in Wisconsin. Knowing the importance of team sports and having played as a young person herself, Lee continues to serve as an advocate for women’s athletics. She believes there are many life lessons gained in competition, commenting on these lessons, Lee said, “competition develops qualities in our character such as perseverance and determination,” she continued, “these two character qualities have come in handy over 32 years of marriage and raising and home schooling seven children.”
