IHSAA Student-Athlete Tip of the Week (9/3/24)

"Promoting Education Based Athletics in Indiana"

Whether it is life, school, or sports, student-athletes are always striving to improve their skills.  They want to become a better person, do well in school and compete at the highest level in athletics.

It is easy to get caught up in the present.  Sometimes we forget that time is on our side when it comes to improvement.  Age, size and strength are all attributes that contribute to improvement.  However, the most important of all is experience!  Experience is learning through trial and error.  You correct your weaknesses or mistakes and move on to the next challenge.  

A coach once told me the following:  "Who you are today really counts, which means who you are tomorrow really matters."  

As we strive to do our best every day, we will often times come up short. That's why tomorrow is always important!
