Motivational Plaques & Poems

A BIG PART OF OUR CHAMPIONSHIP TRAINING CLASS IS MOTIVATIONAL PLAQUES AND POEMS. MANY OF THESE POEMS ARE THE ONES WE AS COACHES HAVE USED OVER AND OVER. WE HAVE A COLLECTION OF OVER 40 OF THESE PLAQUES THAT WE HAND OUT TO THE STUDENTS. THEY KEEP THEM IN A THREE RING NOTEBOOK. WE ARE CONSTANTLY ADDING NEW HANDOUTS WHEN WE COME ACROSS ANOTHER MOTIVATIONAL TOOL THAT THE KIDS RESPOND TO. WE HAVE PUT THREE OF OUR FAVORITES HERE ON THIS PAGE. IF YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR OWN SET OF MOTIVATIONAL PLAQUES TO USE YOU MAY ORDER THEM ON THE ORDER PAGE.

WE FIRST HEARD "THE BUILDER" FROM LOU HOLTZ AT A COACHING CLINIC YEARS AGO. IT IS REALLY GOOD AND ONE OF OUR VERY FAVORITES. THE PLAQUE BELOW STARTED WITH A COACHING CLINIC WITH HAYDEM FRY SAYING, "THE BEST IS YET TO BE." WE COMBINED IT FIRST WITH THE LONG USED "IF IT IS TO BE, IT IS UP TO ME." THEN ALONG CAME, "THE ME I SEE IS THE ME I'LL BE." FINALLY, WE REALLY LIKED THE DETERMINATION THAT COMES WITH, "IT'S GOING TO BE BECAUSE OF ME."

MIKE SMITH IS A MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER THAT COMES AROUND TO HIGH SCHOOLS AND DELIVERS A VERY HIGH ENERGY ASSEMBLY THAT IS WELL RECEIVED BY THE STUDENTS. HE LEFT US WITH A NUMBER OF REALLY GOOD MOTIVATIONAL SAYINGS. WE PARTICULARLY LIKE THE FOLLOWING, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE OLD "I CAN'T" IS USED SO MUCH THESE DAYS BY HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS.

REMEMBER IF YOU WOULD LIKE THE FULL SET, YOU MAY DO SO ON THE ORDER PAGE.
