In our latest tournament we beat the Garner flames 13 U Garner Flames 53-40. This was a hard fought game that we refused to lose even with a foul count of 12 to 1 in the second half. In spite of that help we were able to use good teamwork, passing, and defense to win that ball game. In our second game of the tournament we faced a Hoops City Heat showcase team in their 2nd game. These were girls from 4 different teams combined to make a very tall and talented group. We won this game 43-40 in a nail biter. Truly, a team effort against a much larger team. Two of their girls were over 6-2 and our tallest player is ~5-7. Remarkable effort and play by our team. Finally in the first game we played a team from Chapel Hill that had beaten us by 2 points in Greensboro. In this game they were missing their talented tall center. We took care of business and won 47-19. This gave us our 4th championship in 7 tournaments. We played above our age group in three of those tournaments losing in two of them.

A leader is an unselfish person who always puts his team ahead of individual glory, goes and does the extra things like talk

 A leader is an unselfish person who always puts his team ahead of individual glory, goes and does the extra things like talking to a young teammate and getting him straightened out, passing on experiences. Joe Torre, New York Yankees Manager

Great Teams

1.      Great Teams have class. (Play aggressively and with passion, but not dirty.)

2.      Great Teams Lead on and off the court. You need to uphold a high academic standard to demonstrate that you are a true student-athlete. Your dedication to schoolwork is a direct reflection of your commitment and responsibility to your team.

3.      Great Teams listen to each other and demonstrate a willingness to follow.

4.      Great Teams Avoid problems and be straightforward & truthful with concerns or issues.

5.      Great Teams talk about problems and never let them escalate; be positive, respectful and show support for your teammates when dealing with problems.

6.      Great Teams include every member.

7.      Great Teammates recognize that Points scored is a small part of a win!

8.      Great Teammates thank each other for defensive help, passes, picks, and rebounds.

9.      Great Teammates talking to each other and helping each other.

10.  Great Teammates take responsibility for their mistakes (No Blame Game)

John, Melvin, and I, as coaches set the standard and will not accept anything else. If we lower our expectations, so will you. This will ultimately lower the integrity of the program in the eyes of our families and our community.

Finally, you must develop positive mental skills. Confidence is important and is developed from working hard (really hard, not just sort of hard) and choosing to think positive, helpful thoughts. Jim Valvano Always said NEVER GIVE UP!

Control what you can control then work around what you cannot control.  (Note: You can control only two things your attitude and your actions.) You cannot control the official, the weather, the opponent, your parents yelling from the bleachers, your coaches and their substitution choices.

Read these often to remind ourselves of their importance.

 

Coach, Fatdaddy
