84 years ago today, 392 Americans gave their life for us to defeat the IJN and put them on the defensive for the rest of the war. God Bless their sacrifice.

How can you not be romantic about baseball?

A PARENT’S JOURNEY THROUGH YOUTH SPORTS:

Age 5: “He’s got a cannon.”
Age 6: “He’s the fastest kid out there. Coach said so.”
Age 7: “Rec ball isn’t challenging him anymore.”
Age 8: “We tried out for select. Obviously made it.”
Age 9: “$2,800 for the season. Plus uniforms. Plus tournaments. Plus hotels.”
Age 10: “Cooperstown is basically a family vacation, right?”
Age 11: “He needs a hitting guy. And a pitching guy. And probably a mental performance coach.”
Age 12: “I’m not a crazy sports parent. The OTHER parents are crazy.”
Age 13: “We changed schools. For academics. (And also baseball.)”
Age 14: “Showcases are a requirement at this age.”
Age 15: “Ya his ranking just ticked up. We’re cooking.”
Age 16: “He just needs to get seen by the right school.”
Age 17: “The D1 schools want him to walk on. He’ll earn a spot by sophomore year.”
Age 18: “Okay, D2 is actually really competitive.”
Age 19: “He’s redshirting. Strategic.”
Age 20: “He’s focusing on school now.”
Age 21: “You know what? He’s so much happier.”

Roughly 7% of high schoolers play in college.

About 1.5% of those get drafted.

Less than half of draftees ever play one day in the big leagues.

The odds of our kids going pro are somewhere between “struck by lightning” and “find a $100 in old shorts.”

I love youth sports (all my kids play a bunch of them) just keep a good perspective my friends. ✌️

Everyone wants to call offensive plays but not everyone knows that it’s the most critiqued & loneliest coaching position in sports. Definitely one of the most exciting positions you can have when things are going well but also one of the most stressful when things aren’t.

Best players spend their energy on these 5 controllables:
1. Attitude
2. Effort
3. Body Language
4. Self-Talk
5. Communication.

[Matt Lisle @CoachLisle]

Team captains never wait to be named captain before they start leading.
The process starts before that with the highest standards on & off the field, in the classroom and in the community.

[Matt Lisle @CoachLisle]

During practice: Average players get BORED – Good players get BETTER – Great players go to BATTLE.

[Matt Lisle @CoachLisle]

Your body language is a billboard for your mental toughness and maturity.

I’ve seen some wild stuff on the baseball field I’ve never seen this 🤣

[Monte Sparkman @MonteSparkman]

Recovery for a high school athlete should be 8-9 hours of sleep at night, staying hydrated, and getting 4-5 meals a day. Keep it simple. Everything else is fluff.

Coaches: Remind your players that weak body language weakens your team & helps your opponent.

The best team leaders are: "first to practice, first to meetings, first to focus in, first to speak up, and first to step up"

Body Language is important. Here’s why . . .

On day 1 of my high school history class, our professor got up and said

You are 15 or 16 years old. 200 years ago people your age were married, planted crops, had children, and built a cabin by winter. You can do your homework. The bar set for you historically is embarrassingly low. You are not dealing with regional famine or plague. You do not have to save your family from marauders or go into battle to destroy your enemies. You have to sit down and learn from someone who cares about you in a safe, air-conditioned room. You have no excuses.
