COACHING IS NOT A JOB; IT IS A CALLING.
YOU HAVE TAKEN ON ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, POWERFUL, AND INFLUENTIAL POSITIONS A PERSON CAN EVER HAVE. BY BECOMING A COACH, YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO WORK WITH ATHLETES, BOTH YOUNG AND OLD, ALL OF THEM NEEDING YOUR INFLUENCE.
YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO GUIDE THEM THROUGH THE TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS OF LEARNING TWO BEAUTIFUL GAMES: SPORT AND LIFE. YOU ARE IN A POSITION TO CHANGE THEIR LIVES FOREVER, NOT ONLY BY MAKING THEM BETTER ATHLETES BUT ALSO BY MAKING THEM BETTER PEOPLE.
YOU ARE A LEADER; YOU ARE A ROLE MODEL; YOU ARE A PERSON WHO SERVES YOUR ATHLETES; AND YOU ARE A PERSON TO WHOM THEY ENTRUST THEIR PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING.
