The pinnacle of excellence is achieved when every player has

<div class="MsoNormal">
Discipline is all too often perceived as negative. But
discipline is the key ingredient in being a champion. But what exactly is
discipline? It is activity, exercise, or a regimen that develops or improves a
skill such as training. Its purpose is to shape behavior in accord with specific
rules of conduct. In athletics where instinct and muscle memory are critically
important to compete at a high level, it is important to train the body and
mind to function in accord with higher levels of competitive excellence. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Through discipline we learn to control our eating habits,
exercises, our mind, how we respond to challenges, how to tackle obstacles, and
many other behaviors. Sometimes we need a coach to help us shape these desired behaviors
and break old habits that hinder our growth.&nbsp;</div>

better understanding of the team’s strengths and weaknesses. </span></div>
