• Players should not be a member of our football teams if they don’t have high expectations of themselves. We, too, have high expectations for them. How they choose to conduct themselves, both publicly and privately, will reflect on their families, teammates, coaches and the entire Tomball community. • Players are expected to represent the Patriot organization in a positive manner on the field and in the community. We have worked hard to create a first class organization that players, coaches and parents are proud of. • Players are expected to do well in school. If missing practice is required to stay on course with assistance then let your coaches know. Your coaches will take a proactive approach to your academic success. PLAYER’S RESPONSIBILITY – The coaching staff expects and demands each player to: • Play Hard • Be Tough • Know what you’re doing every play • Help, encourage and support your teammates in a positive way during good times and bad. • Practice and play with intensity, focus, persistence and determination in a self-disciplined effort to become a better individual and team player. THE BIG GAME – As a member of the Tomball Patriots they will play in what we consider to be big games; rivalries that have existed for several years and games that will ultimately determine the champion of the AAYFDT. Keep in mind the following and NEVER lose focus. • Why is it a big game? Because we have worked hard to get to that point and have made it a big game. • How did we make it a big game? Because we win and 2 good teams are playing. • How did we win? We followed the plan to win…GREAT FUNDAMENTALS • How did we develop those fundamentals? Through practice and great work ethic
WINNING - We have a very clear objective within the Patriots organization. WIN in the classroom and WIN on the field. “Do you now know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.” Corinthians 9:24 • Winning is not complicated, people complicate it. • PLAN TO WIN – Time tested and infallible • Play great defense • Take care of the football • Score in the red zone • Great special teams Winning is fragile…It is not, however, by accident. There is no such thing as luck. Winning is a result of preparation, attitude and confidence. WINNING ATTITUDE VS. LOSING ATTITUDE • WINNING ATTITUDE – even when you are losing you firmly believe you ran out of time. You expect to win and you WILL eventually win. • LOSING ATTITUDE – even when you are WINNING – you expect something bad to happen. There is a lack of confidence, and trust in your coaches and teammates. • LOYALTY – There are plenty of negative forces in football. Remember that selfishness, envy and jealousy can destroy a football team. – Love and respect the game of football and what it stands for. – Love and respect your teammates – Love and respect your organization

The Tomball Patriots are dedicated to the development of competitive football players and this requires the enhancement of the competitive spirit and cooperation of the players and parents. While every player will have relatively equal PRACTICE time, it is the players who most help the team, at the coach’s discretion, who will get more playing time. 1. Each player will get a minimum amount of playing time/plays in games as per AAYFDT requirements. 2. Playing time is earned through hard work and dedication to improvement. 3. The amount of playing time an athlete receives is at the discretion of the coach. All of our coaches will strive to maintain athletic improvement and putting our kids first. 4. Players will accept terms of playing time. Equal playing time in games is NOT guaranteed nor required. GUIDE TO CONFLICT RESOLUTION If there is a question about playing time, coaching decisions, conduct, or anything regarding the Tomball Patriots, the player and parent should: • Schedule a meeting with the team’s Athletic Director at an appropriate time. The team’s Athletic Director has the right to request the presence of the organization’s Athletic Director. • At no time is a parent/guardian/family member allowed to approach a coach at a game or during practice in regards to any conflict they may have. The Tomball Patriots adhere to a 24 hour rule that requires at least 24 hours to pass from any perceived conflict before any resolution meeting can take place.
Parents are asked to refrain from coaching or otherwise distracting any player on the team including the coaching staff. Parents are also asked not to survey other parents about coaching decisions. Parents aren’t permitted to discuss coaching philosophies with the coaches during a game. If a parent is upset about something with the team, he/she should abide by the “24 Hour Rule” and wait 24 hours before discussing the matter with the coach. Every Patriots team will have a Team Mom. The team mom will make sure the coaches have everything needed from the team’s parents. The Team Mom will be responsible for ensuring that the coaches have a list of everyone’s contact information. Other then Patriot volunteers, no parent or siblings are allowed on the field during practice or a game.
