Here are ways you can help our profession grow:

1. Be great, not gimmicky, in your individual sphere of influence
2. Produce quality content via:
A. Social media
B. Articles
C. Speaking engagements
D. Daily interactions with peers
3. Volunteer within…

For the record, I used to be one of the worst offenders on this and still do these things in spots.

I’m far from innocent here but do try to make a conscious effort to provide some solution when a problem is identified.

And feel free to call me out if you see me not.

Can’t reply to this so I’m quote tweeting. Coaches at John Jay we would love to talk to you about the NHSSCA

Our national conference is this summer at Rock Hill High School in Prosper.
