Dad Moment Time: ☺️. 1. Lo got super stoked last summer year when he was asked to play for Why?! Because his big brother plays for them and their National team. Soooo Lo gets a chance to feel like his big brother and excited to follow him. 2. Dad/Parent beef…club/travel on ALL fronts is insane. Doesn’t just go for Lax…this is baseball, softball, soccer, baseketball, field hockey…all absolutely insane. People have heard me state this…yet it almost HAS to be done. Programs almost force ya to have to do something. Sooooo find one that DEVELOPS your athlete, NOT just “plays.” Watch a bit of practice (don’t stay the whole time, let your athlete have his/her time) Ask your son/daughter what they do or did. Don’t be a helicopter parent, but be informed and ask the coaches how they develop and teach. Pay attention to how or when they coach your son/daughter up. THOSE are the important aspects. YES COMPETE!!!!! Also DEVELOP!!!! 3. Lastly…yesterday was “new” uni hand out…Lo was over the moon for his new stuff. I wish I got a pic of his smile when we pulled them outta the bag. He was excited and saying happy/positive/elated statement. Showing pure joy and excitement for something. It was a nice moment. Be excited for your kids too!!!! No BS, when I would get handed a camp Tshirt, it was a big deal. Soooo yeah get excited for this stuff!!!!! Good Stuff!!!!

DON’T get Lost in the Moment!!!! BE IN THE Moment!!!! KNOW your approach, confidence, beliefs, rules, and control what you can control. Life moves faster than ever…and guess what when you age, it’s a freeway going 90!!!! When you’re young things are firing, moving and grooving. So control it and practice controlling it. Your efforts are determined by the work you put in prior to those efforts. 1000% we will make mistakes!!!! But let those mistakes be physical not mental. Let those mistakes just be that. Then wipe them off. I’ll be honest 🏈made it easy to turn around quick. ⚾️🥎 not so much. BUT that’s the awesome part. Work and put IN WORK so that you know how to clear it. Back story…I know it’s not 95+ but the guy out there is awesome and is one of the best you’ll find anywhere. We see each other here at home, on the road, and sometimes even as teammates 😉. Outside of maybe 3-4 times he’s hit me (lol) we have some good abs. This one topped it…18 pitch AB!!!!! Yup 18!!!!! Finishing with me having a slicing line drive single to right center. He got me one before on a pop out…as I don’t win them all. BUT that will be a moment we have for years to come. Control what you can Control!!!! Good Stuff!!!

Let me give it to you straight forward!!!!! It CONTINUES for a LONG Time…if you want it to. In the moment, that last out. Maybe your last game. Graduating, Prom, maybe you’re blessed and worked to play beyond. BUT it continues. Way too many people…including parents say there best times “were!” Hopefully your best times are “ALWAYS” going forward. Heck yeah moments and times to remember and cherish. BUT make new ones. Continue to be genuine and grow!!!! Heck I’m full on the Lax tank of games…I’ve watched I don’t know how many, BUT we have State Playoffs for G and showcase time recruiting. For L we go into summer tourney season!!!! So yeah I’ll get more, but those are moments to see something special. I can tell you how every football game I played felt. Maybe the exact stats dwindle a bit as I age in remembering…but I can tell you details of every game I have ever played!!!! That includes the maybe slightly concussed (more than slightly in a few) ones!!!! Hells yeah I ❤️ that time. Maybe even took it for granted a bit. But those weren’t the best only…just a precursor to what is a great chance at Life. Soooooooo my post your moments…soak it up…shed a tear and look great doing it…but just know WE are building for a Lifetime of Times!!!! Good Stuff!!!!

SHARE Please 👍🏼😉🙏🏼 was Built From the Ground Up. Wasn’t given or handed over. I re-branded during Covid and took advantage of my life skills and path. I ❤️ what I do. I don’t go to work…I live what I was meant to live helping Athletes get to his/her goals. Heck I lead TEAMS too!!!! Build Leaders!!! Build amazing Humans!!!!! Of ALL ages too!!! Correct, we are not for everyone. YOU have to want to make some type of difference as an athlete. No babysitting or “keeping busy.” It’s genuine is all aspects!!!! Conversations, accountability, expectations…all laid out from the lead in conversation to the day you stop training with us (yeah there is a day). You will never not be part of the FTSfamily!!! You will never NOT be thought of and supported. It’s a pleasure to lead this crew as the Chief. So spread the work people!!!! Good Stuff!!!!

1. Whirlwind…2. Apology…3. Grooving…it’s MDW this weekend. Holy Cow!!!!! Time hit fast forward. Graduations, Senior Days, Games, practices, concerts, coaching, events….every day is NUTS!!!!! And Great in some account. I won’t lie, touch overwhelming some times. YES…I’ve gotten some slack for not coaching like normal for spring…and is killin’it. In my defense I believe I’ve come close to seeing EVERY ONE of our athletes play this spring. Missing a couple, and some I’ve seen more than ever. To top it I have two boys of my own dominating lax season too. Busy is an understatement. And YES I need to make sure knows I’m not sitting at home in my pool (yet). Grooving = growing and building. It’s true we have an amazing bunch of athletes daily. The FTSfamily grows by the month. It’s more than a gym. We do more than teach speed and integrate strength training. Conversations aren’t just about breakfast. It’s a special meaning to be a part of FTSfamily. So much so I couldn’t even freaking tag all our athletes in the pics!!!! I ran out on like the 6-7th one 😆. All in all I’m looking forward to our Summer. It’s always a great time being/coaching daily again. Get young athletes to his or her goals!!!! If you’re on the fence or want more info, I’m not scary like people whom don’t KNOW me say. Heck yeah I’m intense, will hold YOU and YOUR athlete accountable, but will give an amazing experience within the FTSfamily. Let’s goooooooo!!!!! Good Stuff!!!!!!

“Coach”…it’s an honor to be called that. Tonite reassured it will continue to stick. led along with an amazing support team with a 1st Ever Flag football clinic. & rocked this event!!!!! Myself and my surprise helper (first day back to train sucked it up and helped me out 🙃) I believe it was just under 80 young ladies who participated and got AFTER IT!!!!!! Athletic Skills work…Sport Skills work…prior to that an efficient warm-up, and some motivation of what FOOTBALL (flag or tackle) is to ME and what the GAME gives you back!!!!!! Thank you to all whom participated and the ladies for having me. Good Stuff!!!!

Truth behind it all is that it takes EFFORT. Whether you want to be a part of it, be good at it, be great at it, and certainly Compete at it. The Effort you put forth isn’t hidden. For sure you can do it in your own time and space. No one actually sees it, until you compete. From sleep & nutrition all the way to practice habits and teamwork it will get SEEN. YOU control your Effort. Not organized and managing time correctly that Effort may get rushed or even bypassed for something more urgent. Don’t put that Effort in consistently with continuity and it’s wasted. BUT you control that Effort. Don’t make excuses or reasons not to…it goes by faster than you think. Good Stuff!!!

Scraped knees, snotty noses, dirty socks, filthy uniforms, constant rides, meals prepped, blankets tucked, silly faces made, cookies baked, catches had, shovels pushed, screams at, bickering as aging, multiple phone calls a day, hugs, kisses, ties tightened, and smiles at you… That’s a short list certainly. So many more things, traits, givens we get from them. So today, which we should be grateful everyday, we celebrate Moms!!!!! Happy Mother’s Day to ALL our moms. Enjoy and lots of ❤️. Good Stuff!!!

Not a throwback…not a flash up…it’s a Dimi!!!!! He’s a young athlete that’s the epitome of what is about. AND he’s eye to eye with me now!!!!!! WTF!!!! From training with us for YEARS now!!! From a few inches below my chest to eye level. To seeing him be quiet and reserved, into a big talker and communicator. To just overall becoming not only an amazing soccer player, but a GREAT KID. He works his tail off on the pitch, he plays basketball because he likes it (and is good)…but the best part….he just is awesome. Great Family too!!!!! I may be biased because of the Greek brethren, but in reality it’s because they are my Good Stuff!!!!
