To create additional incentives this off-season, we have established scoring criteria to help guide our players' off-season efforts.
The concept is simple: do right and earn points. Outside of losing points for negative behaviors, this system is based almost entirely on rewarding positive behaviors, not punishing negative behaviors. A number of players have provided feedback regarding incentives/rewards. The most frequently identified incentive was the selection of equipment and jersey numbers; therefore, among other rewards and recognition throughout the off-season, the top point earners will have the first choice of equipment and jerseys numbers.
Although equipment will be distributed for camps, there will be plenty of opportunities to rise (or fall) on the leaderboard between equipment issue and jersey selection.
Athletes will earn points for their performance and dedication in a number of areas that relate to strength and conditioning, behavior/leadership within the program and in school.
