Players: Coaches know attending practice is tedious sometimes. They also know when the reasons you give for missing are untrue & make no sense. Being part of a team requires commitment & yes, sacrificing things you’d rather be doing. Coaches appreciate players with those values.
You can be a great athlete, but if you don't have great effort, great character and great grades to match you will always stop short from achieving your greatest potential.
Players: Your athletic career is most likely temporary; your character lasts a lifetime. The person you are is far more important than the player you are. What are your habits? Are you grateful, humble, honest. Do you care for others? Be someone people respect on & off the court.
Culture is a competitive advantage. A team with a great culture seems to have an extra layer of strength, tradition, resilience, belief and power that allows them to perform at a higher level.
A great team always has a supportive cast of coaches, trainers, managers, parents, siblings, grandparents, friends, and fans alongside. #MidgetBBStars#HockeyDay#CultureWins
