Teach Your Players to be Successful in Life

One of my biggest regrets in coaching is not using the platform we as coaches have to impact our athletes beyond the game.  

I spent too much time teaching skills to help them in football and not nearly enough time teaching qualities to help them in life.  

But you and I need to have these discussions with our players.

If you are anything like me, you struggle enough preparing for practices and games. I never took the time to develop an organized curriculum to talk about these qualities.

I needed something that would help me take just 5 to 10 minutes, but lead to in-depth discussions about topics such as honor, integrity, and encouragement.

Now that I have more time, I have put together a book with 14 quick chapters going over topics such as effort, grit, sacrifice, and more.

I designed the book so that you could cover the chapters at the beginning or the end of a practice. The book is full of discussion questions at the end of each chapter to give you and your team plenty to think and talk about.

I have also included a QR code at the end of each chapter that will go to a short video covering each topic.  While much of the book is quotes, it will give you the ability to create full and healthy discussions for you and your players so that you are not just teaching them to be better athletes, but better people.

You also have the opportunity to bulk order so that you can have many people in your program follow along and contribute.

Because I’d love to see this book in the hands of athletes of every sport, I am offering a bulk pricing deal for those interested. Shoot me an email and I’d love to get them to your athletes.

Become more than just the coach of a sport, but the coach of the whole athlete.

Help your athletes realize the importance of developing characteristics like honor and grit.

The book is set to have a quick introduction to go over at the beginning of the week. It then shares quotes and thoughts about the topic. Later in the week you can go over the provided questions to help athletes examine themselves and the team in light of each attribute. Finally, a link to a short motivational video that covers the topic.  

Each chapter also has a section for athletes and coaches to write their own personal thoughts about the attribute or create an action plan to improve.
