    • What are do you as a team want to succeed in this year? I will use this time for captains to cover major goals –
    o (7 shutouts, no region losses, region champions, state playoffs etc.. Should be specific for your team..)
    • As team I remind them of the quote “if you don’t know where you are going you will likely end up somewhere else – (John Maxwell)

    1 – What does it take to finish well?
    • To finish well in today’s game…

    Chapel – Attitudes

    1 – I’ve been very pleased with the attitudes of this team thus far.
    • Valuing the team over individualism
    • Making sacrifices rather than demands
    • Expressed on the field, between teammates, with coaches and even in the media

    2 – This reminds me of Philippians 2:3-4 (read the text aloud).
    • Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit.
    o Don’t draw attention to yourself – deflect praise to others.
    o Don’t take offense to trash talk or cheap shots – respect your team and the sport.
    o Don’t overestimate your importance – there are other players ready to step into your spot.

    • This is the stuff of Solid Leadership.
