Active listening is key to growth. Active listening means we are hearing, processing, and working towards change effectively. Don't be afraid to ask questions too!
Play hard, practice harder. Remember that each rep counts towards the outcome. Effort is always expected - whether it's in the classroom, on the court, or out in the world.
Encouragement and participation are two of the best things an athlete can provide for their team. Be supportive, work together, and problem solve as a team, not an individual. Attending practices, games, tournaments, and team/program events are always expectations.
High school sports allow for some of the most amazing memories. It is a time to make lasting friendships and experience the ups and downs as one team and one program. Have fun, make the memories, and enjoy each moment you have!
