Coaching is repetition, explanation, illustration, imitation, correction, repetition, and that is the way you’ll do it.” Eddie Robinson THE DEFINITION OF SUCCESS: “Success is a peace of mind that is the direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.” John Wooden Team Togetherness “Basketball is a team game, and any behavior that draws attention to the individual has no place in our program.” 1. Team Huddle – The five current players on the court will huddle up during any break in the action, such as before a free throw attempt or inbounds play. The team huddle will serve has an opportunity for the players to show solidarity, offer encouragement to one another, and/or call a specific play or game strategy. 2. Substitution Applaud – All team members on the bench will stand and applaud as a fellow teammate exits the game regardless of that player’s performance. 3. Point Rule – A custom of thanking the player whose pass resulted in an assist, or the player who set the pick that freed up the good shot, by pointing to him after the play is completed. 3 PROGRAM PHILOSOPHY 1. Character 2. Discipline 3. Unselfishness 4. Fundamentally Sound CHARACTER ••• “A lot of times when we go away from home, nobody tells us we’re very good, but they always tell us how well behaved our kids are. That’s what we are trying to teach our kids. We’re in the education business, not the entertainment business.” Coach Don Nehlen Character: 1. Sportsmanship 2. Respect authority 3. Leadership 4. Integrity 5. Responsibility 6. Accountability DISCIPLINE Discipline is from the Latin word disciplinus, which means “disciple,” “follower,” or “learner.” • “Discipline is a learning process that helps athletes to develop drive, self-control, order, character, and skill.” • “Desire is the willingness to do all that it takes to get a job done; discipline is reflected in the drive and actions you do consistently in pursuit of fulfilling this desire in a positive learning and training environment.” • “Making excuses to do what needed to be done instead of having excuses for why you didn’t accomplish it.” • “Doing what you are supposed to do when no one is watching.” The Disciplines: 1. Physical work/habits 2. Maximum potential 3. Personal responsibility UNSELFISHNESS • “A player has not truly made the most of his own abilities if his achievement comes at the expense of those around him.” • “When all five players are playing with the team offense and their own physical limitations, then you have a team that is playing smart.” Morgan Wooten 1. Team concept 2. Team pride 3. Concern for teammates 4. Commitment 5. Togetherness 4 FUNDAMENTALLY SOUND • “We have come 180 degrees from a game too individually oriented to a game that is now too five-man oriented. In short, we have an overcoached and undertaught game.” Pete Newell • “A player has not learned a fundamental until it becomes second nature (a habit). Automatic reaction is the goal of skill execution.” Pete Newell 1. Quality basketball 2. Complete basketball player 3. Knowledge of the game 4. Player and team success MSD of Mt.
