Happy National Coaches Day! Thanks for impacting kids for life!!!

If a game/sport determines how you talk to & treat yourself & those around you, then your sport is using you. Your value is constant & priceless. It never goes up or down based on performance or score. Sports aren’t your identity; it’s not who you are. It’s just something you do!

[Craig Doty @CoachDoty]

Things athletes can do when on the road for an away game:
*Thank the bus/van driver
*Leave the locker room clean
*Thank a parent or friend for attending
*Have a genuine, respectful exchange with an opponent in the handshake line

@DrBradJohnson Failure or setbacks are a natural part of the learning https://t.co/mOrE4DhS49 not "rescue them" from it. Help them embrace it and learn.

Do your players lack grit?

Show your team this 81 second video on grit from Pete Carroll.

Then, have a discussion about…

• What is grit?
• Who do you know that is gritty?
• What does grit look like for us?

“In moments when you're not showing what you can be, you continue to compete, encourage, & be disciplined. It turns. Most people quit before the turn. They're not ready to endure the length of the trial. You don’t sit back & wait for something to turn- you go make it happen.”

[Drew Maddux @DrewMaddux]

“Every possession matters.

Take pride in every possession. It’s a game of possessions.

It’s also a game of will.”
