Players Personal Identity
Identity development needs to be nurtured and
supported to ensure student-athletic achievement
Ensure that players become goal-oriented, self-confident,
and socially- and academically competent persons
Only when players begin to understand themselves
(strengths, weaknesses), their needs, and their goals
and can monitor and regulate their behavior can they
be athletically successful on the field

Youth Players Internal Psychological Needs Self-determination theory
Autonomy
Competence
Relatedness
Rather than asking, How can I motivate my players?,
coaches should ask themselves "How can I create the conditions within which my players will
motivate themselves?

Never surrender greatness. Never allow that torch to dim. Inspite of all odds, believe and trust with a fury none will
doubt. Without this faith, one may hesitate when greatnessis but near. Live in this state of boldness; permit breath to
sear the lips with this conviction.
Regardless of the opponents might and posture, victory is butassured. So stand your ground, submerged in what is theinevitable. The glorious moment, the exact time, that the
opponent realizes,
I am up against greatness.
