"We compete, not so much against an opponent, but against ourselves. The real test is this -- Did I make my best effort on very play?"

A collection of coaching thoughts, player tips, instructional and motivational stuff for those that love the game.
WHAT YOU'LL FIND HERE
I started this Blog a few years ago to toss out some nuggets of wisdom (from other coaches & writers across the web) to the ballers in our small high school in hopes of inspiring a few of them to reach for the next level.
Since then, I've compiled quite a collection of beneficial articles, motivational quotes and player tips covering everything from leadership to mental aspects of the game. It is my hope that you find something valuable among these pages.
