Stay Ready for Opportunity

When your chance comes - and it always does - seize opportunity.

How many people have heard, "I need a chance?" 

Here are times chances arise? 

  • Every day training skill, learning strategy, building physicality and resilience
  • At your club team practices and games 
  • Working out with a teammate or multiple teammates
  • Participating in strength and conditioning at the high school
  • Summer league
  • Tryouts 
  • Scrimmages 
  • The PlayDay 
  • Every day at volleyball practice - demonstrating you know your responsibility during every activity
  • Showing a positive attitude daily and consistently 
  • Executing during games
  1. Know your job.
  2. Pay attention to detail. 
  3. Put the team first. 
  4. Do your job. Star in your role. 
Do these every day. 

Future Hall of Famer Kevin Durant (now 8th All-Time in NBA scoring) wakes up and asks himself, "How can I get better today?" 

Ask better questions. "What can I do to become a contributor?" 

"Look for the helpers." - Mister Rogers 

Find a mentor. "Mentoring is the only shortcut to excellence."
