STORM'n SABRES LACROSSE TEAM PHILOSOPHY

Our primary team objective is to provide every player with the opportunity to experience success.  The Pyramid of Success:  a tool that describes the personal qualities and values that are intrinsic to making the effort to reach your full potential. 

TEAM COVENANTS: 

1.  Be Punctual

1. If you arrive at 4:00 to a practice that starts at 4:00, you are late (exceptions noted in the attendance section). 

2.  Decorum

 .  Dignity or correctness that is socially expected, including social media behavior.  If you are posting about a game/opponent, it should be a positive message that reflects well on our team while honoring the opponent. 

3. John Wooden’s “Two Sets of Three”

 .  These became the underlying philosophy that Coach’s Pyramid of Success is based on

i.Integrity:  Never lie, Never cheat, Never steal

ii.How to Face Adversity:  Don’t whine, Don’t complain, Don’t make excuses

4.  The Golden Rule:  Treat others the way that you want to be treated

5. Do your best- Be Committed
