Notes
Adapt or die and you have to make some adjustments.
I Have a certain set of core beliefs
Have to be able to relate to the players
How do players learn?
Wear the pants the right way
No bat flips - play the game with enthusiasm
Going to keep joy in our own team
Want them to have a blast but you have to respect your teammates and your team
Keeper of the game!!!
Teach guys to play the game the right way. Respect your opponents and respecting the team
Baserunning is something we can bring to the park everyday
Runner at 1b never knows when the guy at 2b will steal
Baserunning worked on daily - some type of theme
You can work on instincts
You need to make a big deal about it everyday
Don’t mistake activity for achievement. If you are not detail oriented you are just oding activity
A great player learns from other players mistakes
Good players learns from their own mistakes
I have to do a better job articulating
You cannot assume anything
We can steal runs throughout the season from our daily baserunning work
The FREEBIE WAR is huge for us! Just like the football coach is trying to win the turnover battle
Different between reckless and fearless
My guys are going to run because they can make it
Enable your players that they can do things.
Never underestimate your players
Trust your players the sky limit
Culture is how you operate
Define it and then demand it
Its just like a swing, you teach it daily
O - ownership
H - hard working
I - integrity
0 - one pitch at a time
Define them and what do they mean
If you are doing it right they can tell you and you need you need to teach it daily
Thoughts become things!
I need them to see it, and make it important to them
There are great kids all over the country
Lets keep it simple
Meet everyday and discuss everyday and keep it simple - 5 minutes a day
Compound effect - doing a little a lot
Video of what the play looks like
Take notes, watch video, demonstrate, and then rep it out
Brian Cain talking about dugout participation
be a great teammate, be engaged, and be sure they are doing it
Team organizational meetings
Special guest speaker
What do you know now that you wish you knew then
All these things you have to teach and worked on daily
You can only take out what you put in (bank account)
Great players
Super coachable
Invested in teammates
Quick learners
Comfortable being uncomfortable - when you make changes that is where you grow
Success leaves clues!
Growth is what we are all trying to get
Learners mindset
Its what you know after you know it all that counts the most
If i am going to ask my players to grow why wouldn’t I, the coach, be growing
Great coaches
ask questions
We all need help
Learners
Humble in the way they acted
Be who you are
Continue to make adjustments
I like to stay in the dugout so they don’t even know I am there
