This week we will be sharing the character quality;
IMPROVEMENT.
Improvement is the process of getting better. No matter if we are a parent, employee,
employer, student, coach, teacher, player or professional athlete, there is
always room for improvement. The best
players out there are always challenging themselves to get better because if
they are not then why continue competing because someone else out there is and
eventually will pass them up.
The reason I chose this CQ is because we are all dealing
with athletes that are in high school or younger. I have watched about every sport at every
level and every athlete I have ever seen has a soft spot in their game
somewhere. Here at Pinnacle Sports training
is what we do and training is how your athletes improve.
I tell my hitting classes that I would rather have quality over
quantity. If a kid comes in and
nonchalantly goes through the motions he is getting worse because there is no
focus or determination to get better. I
would rather have 15 focused and determined swings than 40 really fast,
unskilled and without purpose. Over time
the 15 good swings will help that player improve more than the 40 lazy ones.
