If you coach kids here is something to keep in mind.
Less than 6% of high scool athletes will compete at the NCAA level. If you are only focusing on athletic development and not human development then you are missing the big picture. Consider this quote:
“One of the great myths in America is that sports build character. They can and should. Indeed, sports may be the perfect venue in which to build character. But sports don’t build character unless the coach has it and intentionally teaches it.” – Joe Ehermann
We see the best and worst of human behavior within the sports and fitness world. We have a powerful avenue in fitness and athletics to connect with people differently than a traditional teacher or parent.
Capitalize on that to build great PEOPLE not just athletes.
