Winning teams have it, losing teams want it, and every coach wants to create it at the start of a new season. Culture can influence and determine the success or failures of any athletic program, especially if it is ignored. Any team needs a recipe for success, and one can create greatness by training and developing your team to be their best. However, thousands of intangibles exist in the equation, and determining the importance of life skills can play a large part in a team's positive or negative experience. Every coach has the power to change the culture of his or her program, all they need is a positive attitude and ability to be self-reflective. Yet, it's ultimately up to the athletes to step and accept the challenge of any opportunity when provided the tools for success.
