Put the Student-Athlete first.

Check in on them. Make sure they’re doing alright. Be understanding.

They are a human being, a student, an athlete, a daughter, a son, and so much more.

We have to take care of them. Their life is significantly more valuable than “the grind”

Lately I’ve heard a lot of parents say, “That coach took my kid’s confidence.”

Here’s my perspective: no one should be able to take your confidence. Confidence comes from the work you put in when nobody is watching. Real ones understand that.

A coach can’t give you confidence, and they shouldn’t be able to take it away. What a coach gives you is trust—trust that you’ll be consistent, prepared, and ready when your opportunity comes.

If you’re putting in the work every day, your confidence should already be there. Then it’s your job to show coaches they can trust you by competing, staying consistent, and believing in your abilities.

Confidence is earned in the gym. Trust is earned with your actions.
