𝗕𝗮𝗱 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 ... NOBODY reminds anyone of the standards

𝗔𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 ... COACHES remind team of the standards

𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 ... CAPTAINS remind team of the standards

𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 ... EVERYONE reminds each other of the standards

LEADERSHIP IS LONELY

"If you are going to be a leader, you’re not going to please everybody. You have to hold people accountable. Even if you have that moment of being uncomfortable." (Kobe Bryant)

PLAYERS: How you do anything in life is how you do everything.

◽️ Late for class
◽️ Always has an excuse
◽️ Never keeps their word
◽️ Doesn't complete school work
◽️ Disrespects teachers/coaches/parents

These players are rarely good teammates.

PARENTS: You can love your kids but still allow them to struggle a little bit in sports. That's part of the growing process. "Protecting" them now can limit their development as people. Educate, encourage, and equip. Be careful enabling them so much they're not prepared for life.

CAPTAINS: The most important person you should lead is YOU. You have to lead yourself positively before you can ever expect to lead anyone else. Don't expect others to follow your lead if you're not doing what you're supposed to do. Be an example to your teammates.

PLAYERS: Making excuses in the off-season about why you aren't in the gym or at training sessions will lead to making excuses during your season as to why you are on the bench.

@RandaleRichmond @AthletesDevelop very exciting stuff.

[Jamy Bechler @jamybechler]

@MasonAD_MLewis @MasonAthletics @GeorgeMasonU @InovaHealth Great stuff! Keep coaching coaches and leading leaders.

[Jamy Bechler @jamybechler]

@CoachTierraRudd go get 'em coach!

[Jamy Bechler @jamybechler]

@YolishaJ 💯💪

[Jamy Bechler @jamybechler]

PLAYERS: Before you question your playing time, honestly evaluate how you're using your practice time. Make sure that you're bringing energy, enthusiasm, and a team-first mentality to practice. Build good habits in practice. Find ways to be valuable. Make your teammates better.

[Jamy Bechler @jamybechler]

PLAYERS: Your career will not last forever. Long after you hang up the uniform, your character will still be around. Who you are is much more important than your stats or records. The way you treat people will speak much louder than anything you did during your playing days.

@UindyAD @SaraJQ @UIndyAthletics congrats
