Staff Trains for Student-Athletes to Arrive!

Traveling by bus, train and plane from diverse backgrounds, the student-athletes will join us tomorrow on the beautiful but hot campus of St. Andrew's School in Middletown, Delaware.
The staff has worked tirelessly the past four days preparing for the programmers to arrive! After late hours of preparation, the staff is ready and excited to meet all of the student-athletes! We have gone through situational training for both coaching and teaching; we are ready for the week to begin.


Through these meetings, we have seen the staff growing and developing relationships that will help the week be successful! The staff has grown very close from being together early in the morning to late at night.

We are eagerly waiting for everything to begin!
The staff has covered many different topics on the art of coaching and teaching
-core values
-the three different types of leaders (lead by example, the enforcer, the encourager)
-multiculturalism
-the necessity to challenge our student-athletes
-what various characteristics make up the ultimate leader


Through these discussions, we see that sports are an optimal venue for the teaching of life skills, especially leadership.
