    The City of Norfolk is embarking on a new fiscal year and the Department of General Services kicked it off with a focus on teamwork and training with their "Playing to Win" leadership retreat. A winning team doesn't win without good coaching, so they brought Maury High Boys Basketball head coach and VHSL 2019 Coach of the Year, Mr. Brandon Plummer, to share winning strategies that helped the Commodores win the 2019 Class 5 Championship. 🧡 💙 🏆🏀 Fun Facts: Coach Plummer is moving up! He's the new Men's Basketball Assistant Coach at Elizabeth City State University. Coach Plummer comes from a winning family! His mother, Carla Plummer works with Norfolk's Parking Division and earlier this year, she was named a VisitNorfolk 2024 Champion of Hospitality. The leadership retreat also included team-building exercises led by Tamila Freeman from City of Norfolk Human Resources and breakout sessions on coaching styles.
