In teaching our players, I tried to concentrate on the process rather than the result. If think that’s the best way to teach. If a coach starts out on the first day of practice talking about winning, that approach can actually get in the way of winning.
Thorough preparation does wonders for one’s confidence. We tried to put our players through every situation in practice that they might encounter in a game.
During the season, everything for the team; out of season, everything for the individual.
We believed in following a process instead of dwelling on winning or worrying about the consequences.
The best leaders in any profession care about the people they lead, and the people they lead know when the caring is genuine, faked, or absent.
Play hard, play smart, play together
