This is the first blog post of the 2022 school year. Typically, this is about a current event related to sports, but today I just want to hear from you.\u00a0 I also want to introduce you to this program – an app-based program we call the Student Athlete Program.\u00a0\u00a0This program is designed to improve the character, sportsmanship and leadership of high school athletes. \u00a0This program should be fun and engaging. It is not supposed to be “one more thing” or “something you have to do.”<\/p>\n

Each week, we ask you to complete the five lessons. It will take you approximately 12 minutes per week. This is a minimum expectation that creates maximum benefit. We release these 5 lessons each Sunday. We expect you to complete the lessons and answer one reflective question after each lesson. Your responses will go directly to your coach’s app. Your coach will select one of these five lessons and bring it into practice once a week to lead a meaningful conversation with the team. Week 1 focuses on goal-setting. Each week thereafter focuses on a different trait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
