Tri-State FB Clinic

Well, that's a wrap. Our 11th clinic in the books! Thank you to all the coaches that trust us every year!

If your 16 YO athlete isn’t willing to wake up 15-min earlier to grab water, some protein and carbs for breakfast let alone put together some backpack snacks for their day they really don’t care about getting stronger or improving as an athlete. You can’t earn that D1 scholarship with an attitude consistent with Intramural sports. Seriously, if you have an almost 18 YO athlete under your roof who has a phone, spends > 4 hours/day social media, goes to specialized training, plays multiple sports that you spend thousands of dollars on annually they should absolutely be able to prioritize their nutrition and sleep. Don’t be your kid’s friend, be their parent. Encourage them to pack snacks, build a routine that is centered around supporting the life they want to live. Kids need routine, structure, discipline, and guidance. They will be glad they had a parent who encouraged them to eat well and recover smart. There’s a lot of hard working athletes out there hungry to get better and will easily outperform those who have poor habits. Poor habits like staying up late, on phones for hours a day, skipping meals, drinking energy drinks, eating candy and chips as meals, and flat out showing up to training under-fueled giving 50% effort. If you want your kid to be strong and successful, ask them to put down the phone. Help them plan out their meals and snacks for games and training, get to bed early and pack their water bottle. These are simple and basic things for GOOD health. If you really want to be great you need to do the basics. If you can’t do the basics you really don’t care about being great. No one accidentally shows up to the championship game or succeeds in life by accident. Discipline, structure, and life skills need to be taught early on in life! Too many kids lack the means to succeed. It’s 2025 and it’s time to get these student athletes dialed! 📞

We're 7 weeks away from our 11th Tri-State Football Coaches Clinic on March 7-8th! Full schedule will be released next week!
