Program Philosophy

The purpose of Davies Football is to mold our athletes into “complete” football players.  We will strive to be competitive as we develop character, academics, work ethic and athletic abilities in a team focused atmosphere.

 Coaches will:

• Value diversity and treat every athlete with respect and dignity.

• Set expectations and coach to those expectations.

• Be prepared for all practices and games.

• Utilize a part, part, whole teaching philosophy to teach the game of football both in the classroom and on the field. 

• Seek to make the team better every day through the relentless execution of fundamentals.

 Players will:

• Be committed to the team before the individual.

• Demonstrate respect to all players and coaches.  This includes communication, timeliness, preparation and selflessness.

• Compete will full effort in the classroom, at practice and during games.

• Demonstrate class and humility on and off the field.

• Have pride in and give back to their school and community.

• Strive to be multi-sport athletes and dedicated weight room athletes.
