Have noticed this spring a lot of 17U players looking physically like 16U, etc down the line ... The weight room is your friend! And a tried and true route for playing early in college.
Houston HC Kelvin Sampson - Why Coaches Fail
"I think the coaches that fail at every level, are the coaches that are passive aggressive. Passing aggressive coaches are usually afraid to hold kids accountable, they rationalize."
"If you're going to build a culture, the first thing you have to come to grips with, you're going to have confrontation."
Consistency
Competence
Confidence
Confrontation

Players who weren’t happy with their playing time, position, opportunities or shots this is the time of year to work and earn those chances and opportunities l. They are not just given to you because you’re a year older, you have to go work for those opportunities. #GBED
Coaches find out who really likes the game when they open the gym & see who comes in. They find out who really loves the game when they see what players do with their time in the gym. Anyone can go & be in the gym, but the very best will use their time for purposeful development!
