2013 Coaches Corner #2

The 2013 season is officially under way!  It's been an exciting start so far with a couple of close games for everyone.  Proud of each team for showing serious fortitude in mounting come backs to pull out wins.  Glad to start the season undefeated at all levels!  
I wanted to pass along some advice of value to all players, regardless of the level they are currently playing.  Make the most of every opportunity that you are given to experience and grow in the game of water polo.  This means that every time you are in the water at practice, every time you are playing in a game or sitting on the bench watching, every time you are watching another team play, every time you hear the coaches correct and speak, observe and learn from what you see and hear.  One of the greatest ways that you can learn and grow in the sport is to watch and listen.  We have talked a lot already that details matter.  Observe, process, and then implement.  Pay attention at all times.  Those who pay attention and can execute what we are trying to accomplish as a team, will help the team to be successful.  If you have questions, ask.

Every day, make it your goal to get better.  Every time you get better at one thing, it not only helps you improve, but you help the TEAM.  Every time you enter the water, your goal is to be better than the last time you entered the pool.  Small steps forward pave the way for greater future successes.  Let's improve and get better together!  

Keep it up!
