#Sportingparents......STOP packing your kids sports bags. STOP emptying their sports bags and washing their wet, dirty training gear. STOP cleaning their boots. STOP hanging up their wet towels. STOP packing their competition day bags, making their snacks and filling their water bottles. Just STOP!

I know why you do it - you love your kids - I get it - I've got four kids myself.

But - STOP doing stuff for them.

As #coaches we need them to be independent, self-responsible and to accept accountability for what they do and don't do.

That's what they really need from you - to help them to become INDEPENDENT.

[Alan Couzens @Alan_Couzens]

Excellence begins with a firm commitment to show up.

Every high performance squad I have ever been a part of had an attendance *requirement* If you fell short of this requirement, you simply could no longer be a part of the squad. Period.

No excuses. No exceptions. A basic expectation that committing to get better begins with committing to show up.

Sometimes athletes show up tired. At that point, the coach amends the plan and, maybe, if the athlete is too tired, sends them home early. But, even if tired...

The athlete shows up.

This is the ground floor, the most basic expectation, that any further improvement is built on.
