Coaching Philosophy

I firmly believe in process-oriented coaching. I prioritize player development over win-loss records in the belief this paves the way to lasting success. It’s essential for me that we uphold respect for opponents, officials, and teammates alike. I encourage healthy competition. I believe that the right competition can stimulate growth and progress among athletes.
