Gator Team Rules
Everyone respects everyone
Give 100% effort every day
Have a positive attitude
Keep grades up and stay out of trouble
Everyone respects everyone
Players, coaches, referees, parents/guardians, and teachers all respect each other.
Respect each other’s time by being punctual. Be where you are supposed to be!
Give 100% effort every day
Your team depends on you, so do your part on the field and in the classroom!
You will only improve if you give your 100%, and anything less will be a waste of everyone’s time.
Have a positive attitude
Team-first mentality! Stay positive towards your teammates.
Never quit! Stay positive with your physical abilities and do not get discouraged.
Keep Grades up and stay out of trouble
You are a STUDENT athlete. Always remember that you are a STUDENT first and an athlete second.
Review our student contract to see the consequences of ISS and OSS.
A note from the coach:
Through my experiences as a coach, player, and sergeant, I’ve come to understand the secret to a winning formula – and it’s not really a secret. Many great athletes realize that teamwork is the foundation of victory and soldiers understand that it means survival!
We have a team-first mentality. We practice self-discipline and understand that we can’t always do whatever we want. Our focus is on doing what’s best for the team!
Some of you will quit, but what I say to that is this... NEVER EVER QUIT! You will have never ending challenges in your life, and under my guidance, you will develop the lion mentality and heart of a champion! Those who allow me to steer them back on the right path will know what it means to be a team player, a great athlete, and a fearless leader!
I want to know the answer to two questions:
Why are you here to play football?
What are you hoping to get out of this season?
This will be a lot of hard work, so get ready and get fired up because it is time for some football! - Coach Giddo
