Live three levels of accountability - hold your team accountable, be accountable to your coaches, and stay accountable to self.
Your hard work and communication shows teammates an example. It's not possible or appropriate in high school, but the UNC women's soccer team grades every player every day. If you finish 25th at practice, you cannot possible believe you will see the field on game day.
Be accountable to coaches. Teaching translates, the attitude and culture translate. If you can't be coachable, understand the defensive rotation and find ways to execute well consistently, how can you play?
Be accountable to yourself. What is your TODAY plan? What are you doing to grow skill, strategy, physical and mental toughness? Focus is a skill. Hard work is a skill. Resilience is a skill. "Professionalism" is possible for teens.
Coach Don Meyer preached, "make practice hard so games are easy."
If you practice accountability to team, to coaching and to yourself, you should fear no one.
Standards Matter.

Standards are about “how” you do things.
- How you practice
- How you compete
- How you show up
UCONNs standards are why they win.

Lagniappe. Study the video of strong players and your own. "Video is the TRUTH MACHINE."
