COACHES: The title "Coach” is a privilege. You have both a great opportunity and responsibility. Don't ever take it for granted. With great power comes great responsibility. You have an amazing opportunity to influence so many people. Be a positive leader. Stay encouraged.
“It is amazing how much can be accomplished if no one cares who gets the credit,” John Wooden
The selfless synergy of a team that is fueled by collective effort, enthusiasm, resilience and humility will stand united in their quest for success.
Imagine breaking the national 4x100 record and finishing SECOND!!
Texas speed is DIFFERENT
Congrats to Fort Worth Wyatt who held the record for an incredible 25 years!!
Wanting to win is easy.
Being willing to win is not.
Do you just want to win or are you willing to do what winning requires?
Winning requires:
coachability
accountability
leadership
mental toughness
communication
discipline
sacrifice
enthusiasm
relentless effort
Average teams want to win
Great teams are willing to do what winning requires.
Coaches- This is the influence you have….
Me to my daughter- No cokes- they’re not healthy for you. Still drinks cokes.
Pediatrician- Cokes are not good for you. Still drinks cokes.
Coach says during track, don’t drink cokes. My daughter “I’m giving up cokes, coach said no cokes.”
MEN!
Start listening to your HS coach. They do not have a hand in your pocket. They actually love & want what's best for you. So before u sign from HS or jump in portal, listen.
💰 will come & go & 🏈 will end☝️day. Who will still be there? God, Family & your HS coach. #Facts
Great coaches are HARD on those they coach!
They:
H - Have high expectations
A - Are selfless in all they do
R - Relentlessly lead and love
D - Do the little things daily

High school sports transcend the scoreboard.
They're about building character, confidence, bonds, and resilience.
Wins and losses are just moments, but the values learned last a lifetime.
