PLAYERS POSSESS?
 CHARACTER

DO THE RIGHT THING ALL THE TIME!!!

 CHARACTER

IN SCHOOL:
• Putting academics above all else
• Being on time for classes
• Being a model citizen
• Being respectful – teachers, students, staff
• Act appropriately – no sagging pants, no
vulgarity
 CHARACTER

IN THE WEIGHTROOM:
• Are you even there?
• Are you giving 100% effort?
• How hard do you work when no one is looking?
• Remember: the best kind of pride is to do you
best when no one is looking
 CHARACTER

ON THE WEEKENDS:

• Are you living right?

• Remember this: You are who you hang out with!

• Everything you do is a reflection of our program

and you will be held accountable for your actions
 TOUGHNESS

• Are you willing to pay the price to be a

champion, or is just being average good
enough for you?

• Can we as coaches – or perhaps more

importantly – the guy playing next to you –
count on you when the going gets tough?
 TOUGHNESS

• Speaking of tough…….. are you???

• Can you make a promise to never quit

on yourself or your teammates?
 TOUGHNESS

• If you are not sure whether you are tough, or

if you are a quitter, we WILL find out through
our off-season workout program.
 HONOR

• Honor your Redhawk teammates

• Honor your school and football program

• Honor your family, friends and community

 HONOR

• Do you really care about your teammates?

• Do things together – and not just with your

best friends on the team – include everybody.

• The sooner we bond together and learn to

trust each other, the sooner we will be a
championship team.
 OFF-SEASON
TRAINING
If you want to play on the varsity football team, then off-season training
is not merely a recommendation, but a requirement. If you want to
play, it is MANDATORY! If you want to play, you will be there.
