@football_abes @Sione_k10 Coach Brooks is the Man !!!!

Thank you Coach Brooks for speaking life into our players today. He talked about the meaning of the phrase “iron sharpens iron and how it applies to our program and in life.” #WisdomWednesday

High school coaches chasing stars at other schools instead of developing the kids in their own program is wild to me. Build what you have. Develop your backyard. That's real coaching.

Today I am 7 months out from my ACL/Meniscus surgery. I got cleared by the doctor to start hitting as a DH for my high school baseball team, and in my first at bat back today I got a hard hit oppo double today down the left field line! I’m feeling great and basically at a full sprint now! I’m still working hard and i’m also building my strength back up so I can be fully cleared to play some baseball this summer and prepare myself for football this fall! @SKHS_Wolves @skitsapbaseball @CoachEddieSmith @coachbanks253 @Coach_MDawson42 @mattcomnos @Coach__Shaw @coachsandberg @PNWSports_ @PNW_Uncommitted @TopPreps @SportPrepX @JustinleeJacobs @JordanGetzelman @CoachGehring @CoachDanBower @pauliep3 @Riley_G22 @BUncommitted @CorpusBaseball

Emotions are great! Disrespecting the game or your opponent isn’t. Teach kids the balance

A team becomes unstoppable when the standards matter more than the feelings.

"You really get brought down to earth." #Illini wide receiver Brayden Trimble says he got hit in the mouth (figuratively and literally) early last season, which gave him some good perspective: "This is a man's game, and you're not as good as you think you are." "I figured out I could be hit and knocked down, and that was a big thing for me to realize I gotta grow."

Shocker

Strength training is linked to better grades Among 67,281 students, at 4 days/week: ↑ 42% higher odds of better literacy grades ↑ 39% for math ↑ 31% for English Benefits peaked at 4-5 days/week.

You don't remember the teacher who gave you the easy A. You remember the one who wouldn't let you quit. Dan Hurley just described every great coach. Discipline. Accountability. Commitment. And a bond with players that the cameras never capture.🔥

HS Athletes: When you're 25 you're going to realize that the people who demanded your best were also the ones who cared about you the most

Average young athlete: “I can’t lift in-season, it’ll make me sore & I’ll get hurt.” Dominant college pitcher who lifted the DAY OF his World Series start You can & should lift in-season too

Great coaches are truth tellers. “When you experience failure you have two options. You can either tell yourself the truth or you can lie to yourself.” Most people avoid the truth. Great teams embrace it.

Amazing lesson here for athletes & coaches from all pro Davante Adams “Don’t get caught up in drills on Instagram.” Keep it simple, keep it effective, hammer fundamentals… a lesson applicable to athletes of ALL sports

Overprotected kids become unprepared adults. Dawn Staley nailed it.🔥 You can’t shelter your child from every hard moment and then expect them to handle adversity when it counts. Hard is the lesson. Watch. Share. Bookmark.

👇I love this from Bobby Hurley. 💥If you are a teacher or coach you need to push people beyond their self-imposed limitations. ‼️If you are an athlete, be thankful when a teacher or coach pushes you beyond your comfort zone.

I am extremely excited to announce my commitment to Whitworth University! Thank you to my family, friends and coaches for supporting me throughout the way. Go Bucs! @coachbanks253 @SKHS_Football_ @SKHS_Wolves @Coach__Shaw @coachsandberg @cshell_34 @PNWSports_ @WhitworthFB @JeffGrahamKS

Who’s that coach for YOU?!

If a school wants to add performance training into the school day, here’s how to do it right. ✅ S&C coach ✅ Schedule whole teams in one period ✅ Head coaches present for their team’s lift ✅ Non-athletes get their own period. Only allowed in athletic periods with permission
