When we went to New York this past summer, there were many events that will be forever stamped in my mind. It was a great experience for all who attended and I look forward to our next trip in the Summer of 2010. When we attended the Basketball Hall of Fame, I spent a lot of time in the area of great coaches and came away with these quotes which I find to be daily reminders to me in my life and help further develop my philosophy about coaching.
"Everyone wants to win, but not everyone is willing to prepare to win." Bobby Knight
"What you are as a person, is far more important than what you are as a Basketball Player." John Wooden
"There are only two options regarding commitment, You're either in or you're out. There's no such thing as life in-between." Pat Riley
What to do with a mistake -- Recognize it, Admit it, Learn from it, forget it." Dean Smith
I really enjoy the game of baseball! The time that you (we) spend together in this activity can create great memories and help prepare us for life. "If we'll all pull on the same end of the rope, LHS baseball will be something to remember."
Coach Hansen
