[The Coaches' Journal @TheCoachJournal]

If you're tough, you hold yourself and your teammates accountable.

If you're tough, you stay poised and focused on what's in your control.

If you're tough, improving your best and proving people wrong fuel you.

If you're tough, you get back up when life knocks you down.

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Players: Being physically stronger doesn’t mean you’ll always win, but being focused in the weight room will lead you in the right direction. You’ll learn discipline, mental toughness & fighting through exhaustion. Work ethic & character are developed during challenging workouts.

[Coach Quotes @CoachMotto]

I think a player's heart is displayed on the defensive end of the court where it's nothing but hard work. – John Killilea

Focus on effort, not winning. Winning is a byproduct of effort. – John Wooden

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Becoming the best version of yourself is easier said than done. You need a detailed plan & self-discipline. What’s your vision for your life? Form & practice great habits that’ll get you there. There’s no finish line; it never stops! With every decision, you’re always becoming.

[Coach Quotes @CoachMotto]

Don't think that you can make up for it by working twice as hard tomorrow. If you have it within your power to work twice as hard, why aren't you doing it now? – John Wooden
