Our philosophy at Kingsford Football is simple:
It's what we say when we breakdown after practice, it's something we talk about all the time, and it's something that our student-athletes are buying into."WIN! WIN! WIN! "
As football coaches, we are teaching a lot more than blocking and tackling. We are teaching responsibility, ownership, accountability, and a plethora of other lessons. All of those lessons can be broken down into our three winning categories.
1. Win in the Classroom: This is about the "student" portion of being a student-athlete. This does not only mean having good grades, but also appropriate behavior and respect for other students, staff, and facilities.2. Win in the Community: We are all members of the community and Kingsford is a great place to live! We instill in our players that to win in the community, you have to be involved in it. That could be helping place flags at the local cemetery, ringing the bell for the Salvation Army, or taking part in the 4th of July parade. We owe our support to the community based on all of the things the community does for us.
3. Win on the Field: This is the one everyone gets excited about, but it's irrelevant unless the other two wins are taking place. This involves the weight room, the locker room, and taking care of our own on the field. This also includes being coachable, a great teammate, and having impeccable sportsmanship.
