Tim Tebow said a prayer prior to the Tennessee vs Syracuse game you have to hear 🙏🏼 “We cannot earn it. We do not deserve it. But today we say thank you for your love & your grace”

Great Win Lady Ravens! Keep it up.

.@TywaineFul14026 What you doing man???

Yes, coaches play favorites. They want to win. But they don’t play the favorites parents think they do. Here are 7 FAVORITES that coaches play. #1 FAVORITE: Players they can trust Can we trust you? Can we count on you? These are the top questions that coaches and teammates demand. If you are not dependable or trustworthy, I don’t care how talented you are; you will struggle to play. Be trusted and be a “favorite.” #2 FAVORITE: Players who make the right plays Coaches want playmakers. Do you make winning plays? You don’t have to score. There are many pieces to make a good team. If you make the right play at the right time, you will find playing time and be a “favorite.” #3 FAVORITE: Players who fill a role The most talented players don’t always make the best team. Teams are like puzzles. The pieces have to fit. If you can fill a role that the team needs and be a “favorite.” #4 FAVORITE: Players who help the team WIN Coaches want to WIN. If you can make plays that help the team WIN, you will play. Winning plays? Getting Loose balls, rebounds, setting screens, drawing charges, playing defense, and more. Help the team WIN and be a “favorite.” #5 FAVORITE: Players who work hard Want to get noticed? Work harder than everyone. Coaches will reward consistent hard work. Hard work is contagious and can impact a team in winning ways. #6 FAVORITE: Players who are committed No Deposit - No Return. Coaches want commitment from their players. Do the work. Do the extra work. Show Up. Commit. Committed players = Committed teams. Committed teams = Winning teams. Be committed and be a “favorite.” #7 FAVORITE: Players who have talent Finally, talent matters. You have to have some level of talent to play. But talent is not everything. Many talented players don’t get playing time. Develop your talent. Use your talent. Be a “favorite.” _____ Do you like this post? - Follow me @gregberge for more. - Like and share this with your followers. - Join 13,000+ others who read my free weekly newsletter. 🏆Great Teams - Better Leaders 123.

Results take time. Athletes are often discouraged when they haven’t improved 20% within a single session. It might take a couple of months to see the results you’re looking for… so chill out and keep showing up. Stack that 1% every day.

Sectional 39 at Sheridan, @apajetnation faces @trictrojans in the first round while @LionsAthletics will meet the host @scsBlackhawks in the semifinals. @thbsports

So grateful for this team and the buy in to a developing program.

Farmers don't dig up their seeds to see if they are growing. They keep doing the work, preparing for the harvest. Growth takes time. Building culture takes time. Getting better takes time. Be patient, be persistent, do the work, focus on your habits, be ready for the harvest.

#LCSSOCCER Lions fall 6-1 to Yorktown but show an encouraging 2nd half. Tywaine Fuller scored the lone goal.

Being a good person is more important than being a good athlete. In the end, you’ll be judged more by your character than your athletic achievements.

Being a Head Coach is Hard. Unless you have done it, you do not understand. Here are 8 Realities that All Head Coaches Face: 1: It will consume you. Coaching is more than just a job - it's a way of life. You'll spend countless hours planning practices, analyzing game film, and strategizing for the next game. It can consume you. But when you see your team succeed, it makes it all worth it. 2: There will always be critics. No matter your success, people will always criticize your decisions and strategies. Even w/State Championship Teams. Know and Accept this. Always remember that you know your team better than anyone, and your goal is to do what's best for them. 3: You are not in it for the money. Coaching does not usually pay well, but it's not about the money. Don't calculate your hourly wage. It is a calling. A lifestyle. It's about the love of the game and helping young athletes grow and develop into their full potential. 4: There is no overnight success. Building a successful team takes time, patience, & dedication. There will be ups and downs, but if you stay the course, you'll see the results. Always remember that your #1 job is to Build Culture. Play the long game with Culture. 5: You need a supportive spouse. This should be #1 on the list for many! Coaching can put a strain on your family Having a spouse who understands and supports your passion is CRITICAL. Make sure to take the time to show your appreciation and give back whenever possible. 6: You will not make everyone happy. As a coach, you will make tough decisions that not everyone will agree with. This happens A LOT. But remember, you're in it for the benefit of the TEAM, not just one individual. You will NEVER make everyone happy. 7: You can't want it more than the kids. As a coach, you can inspire & motivate your players, but ultimately, they have to want it. This can be hard for a younger coach. Encourage them to work hard & set goals. Let them take ownership of their own success. 8: It is still WORTH it! Despite the challenges, being a coach is incredibly rewarding! Watching your players grow & develop into strong, confident young adults is one of the best feelings in the world. Watching a team grow is very rewarding. Always remember WHY you coach. -Sam Cannon
