How to Be a good Captain and Leader in High School Sports

Every High School Sport has Captains and Leaders that lead the team. This is a wonderful opportunity for Sports to develop character traits that will help the student athlete in his later career. Follow these few steps to gain the coaches confidence in you!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Take responsibility for your actions! This is a big step. If you make a mistake or mess up, take the consequences and move forward.

2. Lead by actions, not words. Anyone can talk like they are a leader, but actions speak much louder than words.

3. Do the little things in practice that show you are really trying--like touch every line in wind sprints. This shows the coaches and the players you are passionate about what you are doing.

4. Do more. Do a little extra or more than is expected. Run farther, stay longer, try harder than the next guy.

5. Take charge. Start practice on time, even if the coaches are still getting ready.

Tips & Warnings

• If you do all these things, your teammates and coaches will take notice!
