Download or read book How to Teach High School Football Players to Be Mentally Disciplined written by Bill Renner and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mental discipline is a trainable trait. Coaches do not have to rely on players to either have mental discipline or not. But, there is a mental discipline training process to follow to teach the players. In this book, How to Train High School Football Players to be Mentally Disciplined, Coach Bill Renner, describes the process of mental discipline training for high school football players. This process includes the procedures for on-the-field, off-the-field, player conduct, and football program procedures. There are many areas a high school football coach must set a behavior expectation for the players. Often those areas are overlooked, or, the behavior expectation is not established prior to it being violated by the players. With 23-years of successful head high school football coaching experience at four high schools, Coach Renner has created a comprehensive list of the areas a head football must set behavior expectations for his players. A sampling of those include on-the-field situations such as stretching and agilities, injury procedures, sideline conduct, practice attire, game attire, scoring a touchdown, practice accountability, and post-game player handshake line. Off-the-field areas include care of the locker room, care of their equipment, attendance at freshman or JV games, away game trips, classroom behavior and academic checks. Player conduct areas include player's language, promptness, attitude, social media, in-season socializing, and homecoming week activities. Football program procedures include program traditions like touching a sign, national anthem conduct, victory song, pre-game meals, captain selection, team picture, and banquet attire. Coach Renner gives you his team's expectations for each of these areas and more. He also details the mental discipline training he instituted to correct inappropriate behavior for each area. Those discipline training reminders were different for in-season, off-season, or, classroom/school violations. If you would like to develop a strong football culture you need to have behavior expectations for all the areas the players will be in. This book will give you a comprehensive outline of how to accomplish creating a strong football culture by training high school football players to be mentally disciplined.

Download or read book InSideOut Coaching written by Joe Ehrmann and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-08-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this inspirational yet practical book, the man Parade called “the most important coach in America,” subject of the national bestseller Season of Life, Joe Ehrmann, describes his coaching philosophy and explains how sports can transform lives at every level of play, from the earliest years to professional sports. Coaches have a tremendous platform, says Joe Ehrmann, a former Syracuse University All-American and NFL star. Perhaps second only to parents, coaches can impact young people as no one else can. But most coaches fail to do the teaching, mentoring, even life-saving intervention that their platform provides. Too many are transactional coaches; they focus solely on winning and meeting their personal needs. Some coaches, however, use their platform. They teach the Xs and Os, but also teach the Ys of life. They help young people grow into responsible adults; they leave a lasting legacy. These are the transformational coaches. These coaches change lives, and they also change society by helping to develop healthy men and women. InSideOut Coaching explains how to become a transformational coach. Coaches first have to “go inside” and articulate their reasons for coaching. Only those who have taken the InSideOut journey can become transformational. Joe Ehrmann provides examples of coaches in his life who took this journey and taught him how to find something bigger than himself in sports.He describes his own InSideOut experience, starting with the death of his beloved brother, which helped him understand how sports could transcend the playing field. He gives coaches the information and the tools they need to become transformational. Joe Ehrmann has taken his message about the extraordinary power of sports all over the country. It has been warmly endorsed by NFL head coaches, athletic directors at major universities, high school head coaches, even business groups and community organizations. Now any parent-coach or school or community coach can read Ehrmann’s message and learn how to make sports a life-changing experience.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the coach of the 2016 and 2018 NCAA Tournament–winning Villanova University men’s basketball team comes a behind-the-scenes look at the making of a champion, along with lessons from his coaching career and the story of his personal road to success. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BLOOMBERG When Kris Jenkins sank a three-pointer at the buzzer to win the 2016 NCAA Tournament, it was a victory not just for a team and its coach but for an entire program. In his twentieth season with the Villanova program, including a five-year stint as an assistant to Coach Rollie Massimino, Coach Jay Wright had achieved his lifelong dream—and witnessed the culmination of a decades-long effort to build a culture of winning around a set of core values. In Attitude, Coach Wright shares some of the leadership secrets that have enabled Villanova, a private university with an undergraduate enrollment of less than 6,500, to thrive in the hypercompetitive world of college athletics. As he recounts the story of the 2015–16 Wildcats, Coach Wright offers anecdotes from his own journey up the ladder of success, with lessons learned on the Little League playing fields of his youth and wisdom passed down from his coaches and mentors. Each step of Villanova’s journey to a national championship incorporates a signature term torn from Coach Wright’s own motivational playbook. Here are key principles that aspiring leaders can apply, not only on the basketball court but in the boardroom, the classroom, and the living room. From learning to accept your role to remembering to honor those who came before us, Jay Wright’s core values provide a positive blueprint for transformational team building based on the idea that anyone—from the head coach to the last player on the bench—can be a leader when the moment demands it. The product of a lifetime’s worth of championship-level preparation, Attitude is perfect for anyone looking to build a team, achieve a goal, or nurture their own winning culture. Praise for Attitude “Jay Wright’s Attitude is filled with wonderful anecdotes, life lessons, and that which we all seek: wisdom.”—Phil Knight, co-founder and chairman emeritus, Nike “In 2015–16, Villanova displayed the best attributes of a champion by playing hard, smart, and together. Jay Wright instilled those traits in his team, and in Attitude he shares the universal leadership lessons that helped it succeed.”—Mike Krzyzewski, head coach, Duke University basketball
