BHS Track Team Philosophy

We feel it is our responsibility to teach each athlete that sports are a lifelong endeavor and can serve as a metaphor to life.  Balancing hard work with fun is the most important aspect of obtaining success on our team.  During an athlete’s time on the team, we will strive to teach them the skills necessary to compete as well as instill life learning lessons such as responsibility, character, respect, confidence, leadership and discipline.  If all of these aspects are applied, the wins, medals and personal records will come naturally on their own.  Creating a fun & positive experience while in a competitive environment is our main goal. Track & Field is a TEAM sport and the team always comes first. While we have some superstar athletes, no single athlete will be given special treatment based on his or her ability. 

Participation in sports provides opportunities for athletes to grow physically, mentally and socially in positive ways. We encourage all students who join our program to make the most of the experience that can come from participation. Our team is made up of competitors who will get the best training available to succeed in competitive situations and participants who will get the best training available to enjoy and grow from their sporting experience. We hope that our participants will one day be our state competitors.

BHS POSITIVE COACHING ALLIANCE

ELM Tree of Mastery: 
E is for Effort. We’ll give our best effort in every practice and game. It’s more important to me that we try our hardest than if we win. If we win without giving it our best effort, that win doesn’t mean much. But if we play a strong team and try our hardest and lose, I’ll still be proud of our team. 
L is for Learning. Let’s continue learning and improving every time we come out here. If we continue to learn, we will get better. Getting better than we are now is more important than whether or not we are better than some other team. We can also think of this as competing with ourselves; if we get better than we used to be, then we are winning that competition. 
M is for Mistakes. Nobody likes to make mistakes, but mistakes are part of learning. You can’t learn without making mistakes, because to learn you have to try things that are new and challenging, so of course you are going to make mistakes. On our team, it is okay to make mistakes.
