It is not all about you. This is a radical message today. Our kids here non-stop that they should fashion their world for their fulfillment. But this is not where the best of competition is found. The highest joy is found in offering up your effort and skill in service to others.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n This may involve playing for your local school or community or University. Or both. And eventually a club or an entire city and franchise. There is an art to this. If you bounce around and make your entire youth experience about yourself (or your child), you fail to prepare him for this highest level of athletic achievement. Competing for others is where it\u2019s at. Bearing the name of the community on your chest is a privilege. When viewed rightly, it is also a ton of fun.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n Oh yes, and by the way, your community wants you to win. They aren\u2019t overly concerned about whether you get all your want in the way of shots and court time. They want you to win.

Speed, explosiveness, power, quickness, agility. As long as they have been provided a strong, diverse, athletic base, young players can now start to really make physical strides. Their bodies are prepared to make giant physical leaps because of puberty. They minds are also prepared to make giant physical leaps in volumes of work.
