Play hard, play smart, play together, have fun.

Evaluate wins and losses objectively, focusing more on effort and execution than on the outcome of the game

To be successful in coaching you have to treat your team like a family. The leader needs backing from everyone.

You learn more from losing than winning. You learn how to keep going.

You get to do things for people who will never pay you back and they say you never have had a perfect day until you've done something for someone who will never pay you back.

Leadership starts at the top.

You are the real teachers. You have these children when they are at their emotional peaks and lows. That's when they are the most pliable. It doesn't take any intelligence to send a kid home with his head hanging between his knees. But to send him home with his head up every night might show a little coaching.
