Lose, and they’ll ask why you didn’t win. Win, and they’ll ask why you didn’t win by more. Win it all, and they’ll ask if you’re going to do it again next year. The outcome will never be enough. Enjoy the process & the people. Those are the things that really matter anyways.

Michael Jordan got cut from his varsity team his soph year Not many people realize that Tom Brady was a backup QB his freshman year of HS on a team that went 0-8 Imagine if they both gave up Instead it drove them to be the best they could be Sometimes To WIN you have to LOSE

Coaching is like parenting. Sometimes you have to tell a player what they need to hear, not what they want to hear.

Average players put in extra work if it fits in their schedule. Great players schedule time for extra work no matter what.

First game of the year and we got a sweep! C Squad, B Squad, and Varsity all played with great attitude and effort. Some things to work on still, but fun to see the guys back in the court and fans in the stands! #RollCards

Not everything should be easy. Maybe we let kids (and adults) fail a little bit and see how they respond. Just a thought. – at Eden Prairie, MN
