Commitment, dedication, camaraderie, sportsmanship, confidence, encouragement! Do children realize the importance of these words, both in sports and in daily life? I have put together a collection of thoughts and ideas that I have gathered throughout my many years of coaching youth sports, trying to instill in our children a mind-set and a foundation of thoughts to assist them in not only achieving what they want athletically but also in helping them to become better people. This will help our youths to understand the connection between what they learn through sports and what they experience in everyday life.
