Players:

·         Be the hardest worker in practice… every day.

·         Showcase your mental toughness… every day.

·         Compliment a teammate… every day.

·         Build a bond with your teammates and coaches… every day.

·         Represent yourself and your team with class… every day.

Coaches:

·         Your players want to feel appreciated; so compliment them.

·         Your players may lack direction; so guide them.

·         Your players want to get better; so teach them.

·         Your players want to achieve great things; so inspire them.

·         Your players are invested in your program; so care for them.

·         Your players will occasionally lack the ‘want to’; so motivate them.

·         Your players will make mistakes; so discipline them.

·         Your players dictate your success; so appreciate them.

Parents:

·         Be supportive and positive at all times; no yelling, cursing, or screaming at officials or coaches.

·         Let your kids be kids; don’t push them too hard!

·         Be proud of your children unconditionally; even when they don’t play particularly well.

·         Encourage your kids to eat well, get sleep, and give 100% in everything they do.

·         Let your children be coached! It is their team; not yours.

·         Coaches shouldn’t tell you how to parent; you shouldn’t tell them how to coach.

·         Listen to your children! If your child doesn’t say much; ask questions. Show an interest!
