WHY DO I COACH?

VISION STATEMENT

Our Program will: Be a Family!

Always COMPETE!

Have a growth mindset!

Give our Best!

Live Like Champions!

LIVE LIKE CHAMPIONS!BV Tiger Football Program Philosophies

Cornerstone Philosophies: What We’re All About

1. Family – Forget About Me, I Love You: We are going to be there for each other.

We are going to support each other. We are going to encourage each other to greatness.

No matter what happens, no matter what adversity strikes and no matter what we go through:

we will get through anything and everything if we do it together.

We will be a Band of Brothers. We will be teammates for

four years, but we will be brothers for life. Above all, we will be “Family Always.”

2. Leadership: We are going to have an entire team-full of leaders.

Every person is going to learn to become a successful leader: everyone is

going to learn how to lead himself first, and then how to lead others. We will thrust leadership

upon you.

3. Self-Actualization: We are going to maximize our ability. We are going to make

the most of our talents, our opportunities, and our impact on the field and in the classroom.

We are going to become everything we are capable of becoming. We are going to maximize

our potential and make the most of ourselves and our lives.

4. Consistent Character: We are going to dictate our own attitudes and actions.

We are going to have a great attitude and give a great effort at all times, regardless of the

circumstances, regardless of the opponent, regardless of the scoreboard.

Edited Seniors 2018

“The Culture precedes positive

results. It doesn’t get tacked on as an

afterthought on your way to the

victory stand. Champions behave like

champions before they’re champions;

they have a winning standard of

performance before they are winners”

-Legendary Coach Bill Walsh

2018 Seniors• Grew up dreaming of being Tiger Football

• Overcome Adversity

• When you get to this point in your High

School career and have persevered through

all that life and this game can throw at you,

“The Tiger Football family is incredibly

welcoming. We are “transplants”, we moved

here our son’s sophomore year. From Day 1,

the coaches and players made Grant a part of

their family and the parents made us feel as if

we have always been a part of this special unit.

This experience we have had as Tigers will be

cherished. It really is so much more than just

football, it is family.”

Brooke & Joey King - Parents

Grant King, Class of ‘19

“I play college football now, and when

Coaches, other players or football fans ask

where you played high school football and

your say Blue Valley, they always comment

on what a great program that I was able to be

apart of. This makes me even more proud to

have been a Tiger.”

AJ Totta

Class of ‘16

Many teams try to rally around the words “family” and “tradition”, where at BV these words are the internalized core of our foundation. You always knew you were playing for more than just your teammates on the field. All you have to do is look at our sidelines and stands to see the former players and community always at our side supporting us.

Luke Bernard Class of ‘18

Even after you graduate you are still

family. You come back and watch our

brothers who were watching us when

we were playing. Tradition.

Once a Tiger. Always a Tiger.

Ricky Williams
