At this point in my career, I'm not sure how much longer I'll be coaching with a team. But right now I'm at Aurora Christian (7-1) in Aurora Illinois. I blessed to be part of a very talented group of coaches. Knowledgeable men. Hard nose football men. TRUE men of FAITH. They are Coaches that don't need to curse their way thru a practice to get their point across. Sometimes when coaches volunteer to help a program, whether it's youth or high school, they take it as a free pass to do and say whatever they want. The few coaches who are abusing the position should be the first ones told to leave, because your program isn't going to tolerate any form of abuse. PERIOD. Coaching kids hard or asking a kid what he doesn't quite understand, is fine. But asking him if he's an f'in r'tard, isn't. PERIOD. Yes, that's out there. EVERYDAY. As parents you can and should demand better for your child. Years ago I did just that for one of my son's teams. Maybe if you act with courage today, your kid will for a lifetime! 😉

Young coaches. Outwork everyone. Do the job right.
That’s non-negotiable.
But don’t coach the "you" out of you.
Keep your swag.
Keep your energy.
Keep your fun.
They don’t always remember perfect.
They remember real.
So lead hard. Lead with love for the game.
Be you every single day.
We got this!

"Wear It Proud"
Every great team has that one. You know..
That guy or gal who walks in and the whole room gets brighter.
They bring a different energy to meetings, practices, and games.
Real Passion isn’t a mood we turn on and off.
It’s tattooed to our souls.
We live it every day.
We got this!

.@GenevaVikingsFB senior Lincoln Mercado (@LincMercado2027) loves his versatility in football, a sport that was taken away from him at a young age. He now roams at tight end in the Vikings' dominant offense.
