Champion Development Program

(CDP)

YOU are important:

• One great attitude cannot win a game. BUT…..one bad attitude can ruin a season

1. You complete the puzzle. You have a responsibility to do your part.
2. It is inexcusable not give your best effort
3. You are a leader on the team. Leadership comes with responsibility, not privilege.

Coaching Philosophy

Competitive soccer provides a vehicle for your children to experience, face, and overcome direct challenges in a healthy, encouraging environment. It is our responsibility as coaches and spectators to foster an environment that demands the pursuit of excellence, while encouraging risk-taking and learning from mistakes.

A win is a checkmark in the win column. A victory is the lasting growth that results from focused effort toward a goal that is beyond our current ability. The victory is derived from the effort, attitude and commitment – not the final score.

Our goal will be to develop:

1. Character
   1. Repetition – Hard becomes easy with consistent effort
2. Integrity
   1. Sportsmanship – fight like crazy during the game. Laugh like friends afterword
3. Courage
   1. Facing the challenge and risking failure – make mistake…try new things…take chances
