    Of all the qualities that he exhibited in his immense success, the dominant was his ability to concentrate on his sole purpose: winning the game. Coach Lombardi saw ‘winning’ both as a goal and as a reality. Vince Lombardi knew the game before he became a coach and understood it better than someone who had not played the game. In sport, it is ludicrous to think of hiring a coach who has not played the game simply because he would find it hard to impress the players and gain their respect. In the same manner, in business terms, a manager would lack credibility. In search of excellence, it is important to notice that, in most excellent companies, the person at the top has an intimate knowledge of the product or service being delivered. The advantage of having such a person is that, by the time that person reached the top, most of those in the company knew they had a leader that understood the business and what would be needed to improve the…

    Understanding a coaching philosophy is important in the development of one’s own personal philosophy. There are many components that shape a philosophy and understanding who you are as a person and a coach are valuable in the discovery of a coaching philosophy. If we examine the philosophy of Pete Carroll, the Head Coach of the Seattle Seahawks, Pete’s philosophy journey developed as he travelled from college teams to professional football leagues. Not until Coach Carroll hit rock bottom and without a coaching job, did he discover and develop his coaching philosophy. Carroll wrote in his book Win Forever, that if he ever coached again, (he) promised (himself), (he) was going to build an organization that could win forever (Carroll, & Roth,…

    In figuring out who I wanted to write this paper on, many different leaders popped into my mind. I knew I wanted to choose a “sports figure” because playing sports has always been a huge part of my life. Every coach I have had, regardless of the sport, has always been a leader in my eyes so I thought it would be fitting to choose a coach. Coach Tony Dungy is said to be one of the greatest to ever coach the game of football. I would have to agree with that statement. I have been a fan of Tony Dungy ever since he became the head coach of the Indianapolis Colts in 2002. I look up to, and respect him as a coach and as a person. I wanted to write this paper about him in hopes of learning more about his leadership style and what he thinks it takes to be a leader. Since I aspire to be like him as a coach, I want to leave a lasting positive impression upon the young individuals that I teach. I believe that that is exactly what Tony Dungy did for all of the players he has coached. He used his abilities, skills, values, and ethics to inspire, motivate and coach his teams on to victory.…

    Vince Lombardi

    Vince Lombardi is regarded as one of the most legendary and greatest coaches of all time. Not only did he create winning teams, his philosophy and motivational skills were key factors to his success as a high school, college, and professional football coach. Vince was Italian and grew up in Brooklyn. His father owned a meat shop, and he made sure that Vince was a responsible young man and had him do work for him when he was not in school. Much of Vince’s philosophy and discipline as a coach was learned from his father in his younger years. His father told him as a young man that “There was only one right and wrong, and he believed that you only did the right thing all the time” (O’Brien, 1987, p. 23). Vince began playing football at the age of 15 and later got a scholarship to play at Fordham University. Although he did not have much playing time at the beginning of his career because there were players who had priority over him and the fact that he incurred several injuries in college football. He was among the linemen that became known as the Seven Blocks of Granite in his later college years. Vince believed in winning, and did not ever take losing lightly. While he was in college, he did well, but not above average in academics. He was a devout Catholic, and he did spend many hours studying to improve his academic scores. After Fordham, Vince played on several semi-professional football teams, but his small stature did not prove him to be a successful football player in the pros. Afterward, he accepted a job as an assistant football coach at St. Cecilia High School in Englewood, New Jersey. This was the start of a long coaching career that would prove Vince Lombardi to be one of the greatest coaches in history.…

    Many people want to believe they are the best and if they aren’t they should just give up. Derek Jeter once said “ there may be people who have more talent than you, but there’s no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do - and I believe that.” This quote is known as one of the most inspirational quotes for athletes. Jeter’s quote has been applied to the lives of many athletes, especially Jessica Long, Babe Ruth, and himself. . It has affected those individuals in different ways and taught them different things.

    David Goliath Underdogs

    “Greatness and beauty exist in the David-Goliath fights when the underdog wins” because the underdog teaches us about how success depends on the characteristics of the underdog and not on the opponent they face. The world is extremely competitive, so when the underdogs, or the party popularly expected to lose, win, it goes against conventional wisdom. Some say their passion and belief in their work or team leads them to be successful. Others say it's the way they conquer. Vivek Ranadivé told us in the book, David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants by Malcolm Gladwell, that he helped coach his daughter's basketball team the same way he coordinated his company at his software firm - “with appeals to reason and common…

    “Do your job.” A simple quote by Bill Belichick (New England Patriots Head Football Coach) but this quote means a lot about my character. The reason it means a lot to me is because if you work tremendously hard and do your job your team will be successful. My head football coach, Mike Rowe uses this quote as well and adds “If everybody does your job you will be successful. Trust your teammates since they will fight for you and the rest of the team.” I am tying this quote to football but it can be used in any team sport you are involved in. Football teaches character and that’s why I love it so much. I’ve learned so much about myself and how I want to live my life just from being in football.…

    This quote relates bad hops in baseball to obstacles in my life and making great plays to overcoming those obstacles. This brings me to my laws of life which are how to deal with failure, and how to make the best of a bad situation put before you. I will be relating both of these laws to experiences I've had in baseball. I made the realization that failure is healthy and can only make me stronger. Before I made these realizations, whenever I would fail I would get down on myself and lose confidence. I’ve also had to make the best of an unfortunate situation that occurred during the baseball season. These are my laws of life.…

    Have you ever imagined not having a coach for your sports team? Or why your coach is so successful? Even though they are very demanding, they’re essential for any team’s success. “I demand a lot out of my players, but we have fun and I give them room to learn and make mistakes,” said Coach Mike Bates. They provide structure and are the heart and souls of each team. Coaches have to love the game. The team reflects the coach, if he’s successful so will you be. The coach needs to be disciplined and teach the fundamentals of the game. They should instill moral values into the team.…
