Great Teams and Leaders

It was not quite the season the team had envisioned. With another road trip looming, morale was low and motivation was non-existent. The season was essentially over as the athletes were just going through the motions and counting down the days until it mercilessly would end. Little did they know when they woke up that day that instead of being another step closer to the end, this particular trip would mark the beginning of something special. They would encounter situations and have conversations that would start to change the way they looked at themselves and the team. In learning how to be better teammates and more positive leaders, their seemingly finished soccer season was now only beginning.
