VIDEO BELOW: What an opportunity to work with one of the best players in the country. Sophia Wiard is the reigning MAC Player of the Year, scored over 1500 points at Toledo, beat U of M twice and played in March Madness. She will run our teams in Fremont will also coach Lakeshore teams. Do not delay. A great opportubity to learn from the best.
Video above is 8:40. Highly recommended. 80-90% of players in middle school AND high school possess average skill. Players who do not have sharp, repeatble skills have no chance of significant playing time, if they even make the team. These skills are created and sharpened in practice via repetition and reinforcement. This is the Basics model. Please do not confuse competition (games, leagues, tournaments) with competitive growth. They are basically unrelated. It frankly makes no sense to compete with average skill.

Coach, your Mindset Training is very similar to what the Buckeyes went through when I was there, when we won the National Championship in 2014 (under Urban Meyer). Our players will benefit! Coach Rick Court, Greenville HS
