Volleyball Character

"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit." - Aristotle

Aristotle defines character by what we do. Sport character reflects this. 


As a member of a team, your actions impact everyone else on the team. Lateness, being a distraction, poor grades, not following team rules violate "volleyball character." 

Young players lead by being fully engaged in the program. Team captains have a responsibility to assure accountability to the team, especially regarding the Chemical Health program. Show up on social media at a gathering where there are drugs or alcohol and you will be suspended under Middlesex League rules. And you will have lost the trust of your coaches and teammates. 

Accountability means "holding yourself to a high standard." It's your choice.
