One of the most destructive things a coach/leader can do is model behaviors that contradict the values they verbally promote.
If you say respect, BE respectful
If you say be self-controlled, BE self-controlled
If you say be selfless, BE selfless
If you say love, genuinely love!
If someone has ever taken the time to be a part of your life or help you in any way, I hope you appreciate them. They’re trading hours of their life for you & nothing’s more important than time because it isn't promised. They don’t owe you their time, so give them your gratitude.
Coaches: Bring your sons and daughters around the team frequently. Expose them to practices, team activities, bus rides, locker room celebrations and heartbreaks. Your children’s relationship with the student-athletes and exposure to the team culture is valuable to their development.
Additionally, the players in your program get to see you as a parent. You set an example for them on how to prioritize and balance both family and work, something they’ll need to do in the future.
*Bring one child at a time when they are younger.
*Have your spouse bring the kids and stop by for a portion of practice.
*Know what age appropriate activities your kids should be exposed to.
*Balance is key; your practices and offices shouldn’t look, feel, or sound like a daycare center.
*Talk about good parenting with your players and be an example to it.
*Leave practice early when needed to attend your kid’s games/activities and let your assistants run practice. Verbalize to your team why you’re doing it. Show and explain to them what active parenting is and how delegating trust and responsibility to staff is beneficial for all.
*Make it easy for assistant coaches to also be active parents and spouses.
Former NFL head coach Bruce Arians told his staff during their first meeting, “If you miss a ballgame, a recital, anything to do with your children, I'll fire you.” They won a Super Bowl with this team policy.

Parents,
When you meet your child’s teacher in the coming weeks, be sure to hug and thank them. I guarantee if you were to drive by any school right now, you would find 10+ cars in the parking lot.
Teachers are tirelessly working off the clock to perfect every little detail so that your child has a wonderful school year.
Teachers, you really are incredible and you make the world go round.
Thank. A. Teacher.
