Good players are fit, healthy, and well. As coaches, we promote and model the importance of exercise, fitness, and healthy lifestyles. The goal is a resilient physical capacity. As a primary goal and outcome in your coaching, promote and allow multi-sport participation! The payoff is significant to the athlete and to your team's culture. Also, don't forget the importance of nutrition and other noteworthy health linchpins like sleep and lifestyle (mental health). These support the development of a well-rounded player who can withstand the rigor of the game.
