Integrity is NOT situational.
Sportsmanship and respect are great opportunities to demonstrate to the world what kind of person YOU are. It's a reflection of your character as much as it is the other person.
"One man practicing sportsmanship is far better than a hundred teaching it." (Knute Rockne)
At this summit, students will understand the importance of respecting others, themselves, and the spirit of the game.
"It's easier to build strong children than repair broken men." (Frederick Douglass)
Students will develop skills to help them become people of influence on their teams, in their schools, communities.
"I'm not a product of my circumstances but rather I'm a product of my choices." (Stephen Covey)
Students will learn how to maximize their leadership potential and understand what it means to be a good teammate.

Is there any follow up to this summit?
We understand that sometimes the emotion of a cool conference wears off or that students might forget some of the lessons taught during the day. Because of this, we provide a year's access to TheLeadershipPlaybook.com online curriculum to all schools who participate in the summit. All of the students and teams at the participating schools will receive access to the hundreds of 2-minute video lessons on becoming a better teammate and leader.
Sports build and reveal character.
The purpose of this sportsmanship summit is to assist schools, administrators, and coaches with their efforts to develop the next generation of leaders. The students in our schools today are the future husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, business people, educators, leaders, and citizens in our communities. Sportsmanship is the foundation for interscholastic sports and activities. It's not whether you win or lose but how you play the game, watch the game, and approach the game. High school sports provide many opportunities for students to learn the appropriate conduct, behavior, and mentality both on and off the playing fields.
