Bell-wether, Belichick Principles Translate

Steal ideas wherever you can. Tara Sullivan profiles the Bill Belichick to North Carolina story in Sunday's Boston Globe.

Her observations play across a variety of sports. Here are excerpts:

▪ Do your job, a mantra he lived by, reminds players to focus on their own responsibility and not be caught up with what others are doing.

▪ Put the team above yourself.

▪ Collaborate. Teamwork comes first. 

▪ Pay attention to details and be prepared in everything

▪ Find and attack your opponents’ weaknesses, something Belichick made a career out of in the NFL.

▪ Be flexible in your game-planning.

▪ Impact young men by teaching discipline and structure.

These principle work across sports from high school to pro sports. Certainly these elements apply to Coach Scott Celli's goals creating players and teams with competence and character.
