Our mantra: do your job
The phrase DO YOUR JOB is our mantra. It represents a mindset of focusing on your responsibility and what you can control. We cannot worry about what everyone else is doing. We also cannot worry about how big or small our job may be. We cannot control those things but what we can control is DOING OUR JOB every single time at an ELITE level. We believe that if you “DO YOUR JOB,” you are not just completing a normal task, you are attacking a task that is important to your livelihood and you do it the best possible way while also persevering to continue to do it through adversity and other obstacles.
Our culture: mortar
M- MATURITY: When what you HAVE to do becomes what you WANT to do! This represents our discipline.
O- OVERACHIEVING: This is our effort and our mindset. We need men that will go above and beyond what they are asked to do. We will always strive to do each drill, assignment, etc. better than we have ever done it before!
R- RELATIONSHIPS: This is arguably the most important part of our culture. Players must get to know their teammates. Coaches must get to know their coworkers. Coaches and players must get to know each other. We are a F.A.M.I.L.Y. Fight for each other, stick up for each other. If someone is bad mouthing the team, a teammate, or a coach do not just let it slide. Let them know you care! (FAMILY:Forget-About-Me-I-Love-You)
T- TOUGHNESS: Tough times don’t last but tough guys do! When we are struck with adversity on the field, in the classroom, or in our lives, we will preach our players how to persevere through those tough times to ultimately prevail! We will always have an excuse for WHY NOT, but we will strive to show everyone HOW we can and will!
A- ATTITUDE: This is our energy. We will show up to school and practice with enthusiasm unknown to mankind towards our purpose! This includes our positive body language!
R- RESPONSIBILITY: We are all responsible for building and maintaining the positive culture of our team. Everyone has a job to do. DO IT, BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR IT
Our 2023 theme: #swag23
#SWAG23 was chosen for this year’s theme.
SWAG is short for swagger.
This represents one’s positive/confident aura or attitude.
This also builds off one of our core values of ATTITUDE
We want to show SWAG in our play, our actions, & our body language.
There is nothing more fueling on the field than when a player does something good & his teammates are visibly pumped up & celebrating the good play made with each other.
With SWAG, we will be that team fueling each other with our SWAG aura.
