career, I will be very pleased. To me, having integrity means making the
right decisions on and off the playing field/court. Being a morally sound
coach and individual would be ideal. Knowing how to make the best
decision for the team and knowing in my heart that it will be the right
decision is the type of integrity that I want for my life and my coaching
with me. If I put myself into situations where I am being dishonest or less-
leads into being a trustworthy coach. I want to be the kind of coach that is
not only a coach but is someone who can still be a friend and be someone
who my athletes can talk with about problems or just life in general. Being
a fair/equal coach hits hard with me because I have had coaches that
were not fair and they did not treat their players equally, only playing the
players of parents who knew the coach well or who happened to be his
friend. I would want to be the coach that tests the ability of my team and
then go from there. The last, but definitely not the least, thing I want to be
known for is being humble. Having humility means not feeling as if I need
to take credit for everything, allowing someone else to get the credit, or
just giving the glory to God. I do not want to be known as a coach that
makes poor decisions and then blames them on others. I want to be the
one that wins games and makes a statement and then gives the glory
away.

teach my players the game of life and can be the person on whom they
look back and say, wow, I sure am glad that I had Coach Bradley as a
role model, that will be true success and will make me most happy.

athletes how to play the game, how to play it well and with the correct
fundamentals. If they know the fundamentals, then I believe that the rest
will fall into place with the right coaching style. On the physical side, I
make sure my athletes are in good shape and can play for the full game if
they need to. Additionally, I make sure my athletes are not going to get
pushed around. I will make sure they can hold their own and be physical
with the other team. Thirdly, I will instill morality into my players. We are
not going to be the type of team to cuss out another team or get into
arguments. I know we will have disagreements, but I will make sure that
my team knows the difference in right and wrong. If they make a poor
decision I will point it out and communicate with them about it, then I will
do my best to continue coaching them and living out morals so they know

Concept:
There is more to life than just sports. Yes, I am a coach, and yes, I want to win and be
successful. However, there is more to being successful in life than just a game. Life is
tough and sports are a good way to learn those life lessons without being fully emerged
into that situation.
