Zillah Leopard Girls Basketball Goals and Philosophy     Goals   Ø      Provide your daughters with a positive experience.   Ø      Create a positive learning environment for each player and team.   Ø      Help each team member and team feel and be successful.   Ø      Treat all athletes with respect and dignity.   Ø      To represent our families, team, school, and community with respect and pride.     Summer Philosophy   Ø  Our two main goals are to improve individual play and create an opportunity to bond as a program (have fun). No more. No less. We truly want our athletes to learn how to succeed and feel they will by focusing on individual improvement and bonding with their teammates. We do not feel this is a time for worries about minutes, which team they are on, and/or wins and losses. It is extremely important to the coaching staff that the time the athletes spend with us during the summer is spent focusing on these two areas.     Season Philosophy   Ø   Our philosophy is one of progression. All of our season goals revolve around the philosophy of teaching athletes how to be successful on and off the court, striving to consistently get better in every aspect of the game and life. We want to help each individual grow, progress, and learn how to win. We want the best for each individual but will not compromise what is best for the whole, for each team to be successful. All individuals and teams will learn how to play hard, play smart, and play together showing trust, loyalty and respect. We will also represent our families, team, school, and community with respect and pride.   “Success is peace of mind that is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best you are capable of becoming.”   ~ John Wooden ~
