“You have to get to a mode where you are solely worried about doing your job and being responsible for that with your teammates.
Anything else you get distracted and lose focus on what actually matters.”
Winning teams have players that focus on being the best for the team NOT the best on the team.
One of the most universal messages is ‘keep working’. Losing? Keep working. Winning - keep working even harder. Success is borrowed and must be brought back each and every day. There are no elevators to the top of the mountain.

- Never Give Up
- Lead by Example
- Believe in Yourself
- Be Confident in What you Do.
The best players always play with a "chip" on their shoulders.
What is your chip?
Sports Parents, this is for you.
How you talk to your child matters.
Here are 10 Phrases that All Athletes Need to Hear...
1: “I LOVE WATCHING YOU PLAY"
This is a powerful statement to a child. There is no judgment or criticism. Ultimately, this is all you really need to say.
2: “I BELIEVE IN YOU”
Do you want to build confidence in your child? Tell them you believe in them. They need to hear this from adults.
3: "DO YOUR BEST"
We are all different. We all have different skill sets. All we can ever do is our best.
4: "BE GREAT AT WHAT YOU ARE GOOD AT"
This encourages athletes to focus on their strengths. It helps kids define their role on the team.
5: "LOVE YOUR TEAMMATES"
The joy of team sports comes from the commitment to your teammates. Athletes need to care about their teammates.
6: "NEXT PLAY"
This is a move-on mindset. Don't dwell on a mistake and make another. Don’t celebrate after a great play so much that you lose your focus. This teaches athletes composure and poise.
7: "MAKE MEMORIES"
Live in the moment. A season goes fast. Your high school career goes fast. Appreciate the moments and cherish the memories.
8: “PASS THE MIRROR TEST"
Can you look in the mirror each night? And tell yourself that you did your best, left it on the field or court, were a good teammate, etc.
9: "LEAD BY EXAMPLE"
This is the first step to leadership. Be on time, and have a high character. Bring positive energy. Be one of the hardest workers. Be committed.
10: “LEAD OUT LOUD"
Lead by Example, then Lead Out Loud. Be a Vocal Leader. Be an Encourager. Be willing to hold teammates accountable.
