Take the 44-Minute Challenge

In order for us to continue taking this program to the next level, each player must improve their PERSONAL MOTIVATION.


In life, if you want to be successful at anything you do, you must put in the time and effort to hone your skills and give yourself the confidence to perform when it counts. The more you push yourself to work when no one is watching, on days you dont really feel like doing it, and without someone prodding you, the more pride you will take in your achievements.


From now until the day school starts, can you commit to 44 minutes a day? Why 44 minutes, you ask? There are 1,440 minutes in every day. 44 minutes represents a mere 5% of that day and is a small investment that will pay huge dividends. Even if you take into account that the average American teenager sleeps for 9.4 hours (564 minutes) during the Summer, there are still 876 minutes in your conscious day, and it takes is 5% of that day.

Ask yourself if taking 5% of your waking day in order to prepare yourself to be a great player and teammate is worth it. Well is it?
