This week in football: Win
This program is founded on the ideal that football is not just about winning games; that football is about becoming a winner in all areas of life. We want to win ball games, but more importantly we want to understand the skills, character, and sacrifices needed to win both on and off the field.
Some of the lessons you learn out here on the field find immediate application to your life now. Some lessons need some time of reflection and will become evident in a few weeks, months, or even years.
Until that time comes we heed the voices of many great coaches who have come before us:
“You play to win the game.”
Plain and simple.
We have a goal to win this week.
We have been tried and tested.
We have the character of a championship team.
We have the fire, fight, and explosiveness to take on any challenge that may come our way.
Lean into it.
Carpe diem.
Stay together. Stand together.
Semper fi.
