💭 ONE THOUGHT
10 “We Will” Commitments

Great teams aren’t built on talent alone.

They’re built on trust, accountability, and shared commitments → Clear, actionable promises that every teammate lives by.

When a team consistently lives out its commitments, it becomes more than a group of individuals.

It becomes the standard.
It shapes the culture.
It builds championship habits.

The 10 “We Will” Commitments

1. We will prioritize the WE over ME. Selflessness is the cornerstone of every great team. No one succeeds unless the team does. WE > ME.

2. We will put 100% EFFORT into everything we do. Effort is non-negotiable. Talent might win games, but effort wins championships. No Deposit, No Return!

3. We will COMMUNICATE openly and honestly. Trust starts with clear and honest communication. Leaders set the tone by speaking with purpose and listening with intention. Where there is a void in communication, negativity fills it!

4. We will stay POSITIVE, even in adversity. Positivity fuels resilience. Great teams don’t crumble under pressure → they rise to the challenge. Positive energy wins!

5. We will hold ourselves and each other ACCOUNTABLE. Accountability isn’t just the coach’s job. It’s everyone’s responsibility to uphold the standard. Winning teams hold each other accountable.

6. We will RESPECT everyone’s role and contribution. Success depends on every player knowing their value and fulfilling their role. No role is too small. Over-communicate roles. Clarity builds confidence.

7. We will COMPETE with purpose and focus every day. Champions treat every practice, game, and rep as an opportunity to improve. Win the day!

8. We will LEARN and grow from our mistakes. Failure is inevitable, but how your team responds to it determines its success. Growth is a choice. Failure is growth!

9. We will stay DISCIPLINED in our habits and actions. Discipline isn’t flashy → it’s the daily choices that separate good teams from great ones. Discipline yourself so no one else has to!

10. We will CELEBRATE success together, big and small. Recognizing progress and success keeps the team motivated and connected. MUDITA!

Reflection for Coaches:

Look at your team.

• Are these commitments just words, or do they guide daily actions?

• Which of these is already a strength? Which one could take your culture to the next level?

• What one "We Will" statement will your team live by today?

Teams that consistently live their commitments don’t just win—they build a legacy.

Make your commitments matter.

Good luck,
Greg

P.S. Great teams don’t just talk about culture—they live it.

Meaning “to fly” in Maori, Hoka was founded in 2009 so that anyone spending long hours on their feet could get the ultimate experience with optimum cushioning and stability. Less than 15 years after its founding, Hoka is bringing in revenues topping a billion dollars a year, so it’s clear that people are loving this brand. But with quality comes high prices, and Hoka is no doubt in the high end price-wise. Thanks to Brad's Deals, we found the best prices on Hoka.
