"It sounds cliche but, for us, the biggest thing is academics."
In this episode with Merdith Shaw-Moore, Girls Coordinator and Volleyball Coach at Shoemaker HS, we dive into the cliche of focusing on academics and how grades can be a jumping off point into teaching character and life-maturity. She takes us through her Accountability Board, Team Tutoring, and a host of other dirt-level strategies you can employ to help your athletes excel academically. She also brags on 2Words, which she uses almost daily, saying that, "2Words has become our morning coffee. It's our boost!"
Not going to lie, that kind of feedback makes us at 2W feel pumped UP!
Key Takeaways:
- The importance of a consistent Coach in an inconsistent world.
- Daily grade monitoring.
- Networking and sharing with other coaches.
