Merry Christmas, enjoy your day

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Playing time isn’t your decision. It’s out of your control. You can control doing what it takes to become a better player. If you want to play more, then do more. Attack threats. Practice more. Perfect your role. Be better! You’re the only person responsible for what you control.

Players: Academics matter. Without good grades, you can’t be college ready. With a GPA lower than 3.0 fewer than 50% of colleges are able to recruit you. If you have aspirations of playing in college, don’t be lazy. Do the work; achieve in the classroom. Academics come first.

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Players: Be great without being high maintenance. Show up on time, wear the right stuff, be coachable, support your teammates & give 100% every time you play. High maintenance is hard. Coaches love low maintenance players who buy into the process. You’re what makes coaching fun!

Players: If you want to be successful, you must have & maintain high performance habits. High performance is first & foremost a state of mind. It’s preparing your mind for ultimate peak performance. It’s not a day here, a day there. It’s not a “sometimes” thing. It’s a lifestyle.

Parents: If your child is an athlete, he/she is going to struggle sometimes. It’s inevitable. Don’t belittle/undermine their coach. It isn’t productive & only makes the situation worse. Let the coach continue to coach, hold players accountable & be the voice your child listens to
