I texted a coach this morning and asked how the new job was going after about a month.
His response was one I’ve heard many times… and lived myself:
“Not bad. Some kids pushing back culture wise. Always worried about staff and numbers.”
If you go into a program and start making the changes that need to be made, be ready for pushback.
That’s normal.
My advice to him:
Water the good grass.
Don’t let the weeds hold you hostage.
Too many coaches start looking the other way because they want to keep players and coaches happy.
They convince themselves they can slowly change the culture.
It doesn’t work that way. Culture doesn’t drift in the right direction. It moves toward the standard you enforce.
Stay strong to your principles.
The right grass will grow. 🌱🏈
