Don’t like ur HS coach, transfer. Don’t like ur JUCO coach, transfer. Don’t play enough at a school, transfer. Don’t like my travel team, jump ship. Don’t like my role, quit. What on Gods green earth are we teaching our kids. Stop it. Be resilient, plant roots, and fight.
Mental toughness, like all other skills, must be practiced by high level athletes. Be able to take criticism from coaches without feeling the need to answer back or give excuses and have positive body language when being coached.
Not getting playing time u want early in the season?
2 options:
1)Whine/Pout/Complain/Make excuses/Blame politics/Bring negativity
2)Show up early/Stay late/Work hard/Hustle/Stay positive/Be great teammate/Earn a spot
For the sake of everyone around u, choose #2!!

Coaches remember we impact lives forever, not just for the season but for life. Understand you are the light for a lot of kids. #BeDifferent#Lead#LoveOnThem#BeHard#challengethem https://t.co/XkYz5M829g
Here's the thing....if your coach DEMANDS your attention, focus, and best effort...if they DEMAND that you make it more than some part-time, extra curricular activity...thank them. Don't put in the time to be average. Be "that guy" that leads a team to a championship.
@PotomacStateBB@mchs_Baseball01 glad to see our Alma Mater was down our way in SC. #PSCPride Great coach, great program, great school. Safe travels back to the Mountain State as those country roads take you home.
Awesome to catch up with @DougLittle1 & @Schafe2 for a few minutes today as they made their yearly trip to FMU. You guys continue to do a phenomenal job at PSC. Good luck to @PotomacStateBB team as they move forward in 2018

Teachers are already underpaid, undervalued and under a lot of stress. Many of society’s burdens are placed on them in their classroom and they don’t need one more burden to carry. They need our support, protection and appreciation for the difference they make.
Players: I’ve found that the players that constantly push themselves & get out of their comfort zone, are the same ones that are far less likely to be pushed around by someone else.
Parents..if ur kid brings home C’s, D’s, F’s on his report card ur hopefully pissed. If he plays like a C, D, F on the field your probably pissed at the coach for sitting him on the bench. Game days are athletic report card days. Be ready!
