Stewartville Boys Basketball Coaching Philosophy

We, as coaches, believe players gain confidence through positive feedback from parents, coaches and teammates. As a coaching staff we will strive to focus on the positive elements of games/practices while trying to teach our players what we feel is the proper way to play.

We strongly believe in the development of a team, a team that is unified and together can overcome most obstacles. Throughout the year we will reiterate the importance of teamwork and work on developing a cohesive team unit to achieve our goals.

Competition is an important element in high school athletics. We will give instruction during the game to help the players with their performance. We feel our role and that of parents is to help the players develop the ability to deal with competition in a healthy manner. The coaches will stress effort and attitude; we are more interested in effort based coaching than results based coaching. We feel that if our team plays harder and with more effort than our opponents, winning will be a byproduct of our effort.

Below are the coaches for our 7 to 12th grade program:
