My Last Helmet Note…EVER! [Ep. 396]

I dreaded the day knowing it was coming…and it's here. Since my son Luke was in the 7th grade and he started playing Pop Warner football, I always put a "helmet note" in his helmet the night before every game. I did the same thing with my son Brady as well, albeit a different message. I do the same thing with what I call "Cleat Notes" for my daughter McKenna's lacrosse and soccer games now. But this weekend is my last HELMET NOTE. WOW. I've never shared a HELMET NOTE publicly…until today. 10+ years of writing notes before ALL their games. Sometimes it's a few sentences. Normally it's a few paragraphs. Every now and then it's a bit longer. Today, it's DEEP. On today's IMPACT SHOW podcast, you will hear… How my father started the tradition of "Helmet Notes" with me as a 6th-Grade Pop Warner player and the IMPACT it had on me. The frame-work of every HELMET NOTE or CLEAT NOTE. Why do "Helmet Notes" or "Cleat Notes" for your kids? My LAST HELMET NOTE. "9" Traits of Greatness. What can you do for your kids, or grand-kids, or those you coach/mentor? While this weekend will be Luke's last college football game and I'm excited to see him play, I'm also excited to drop some gems in this one that are going to serve him the rest of his life. Here we go… If you enjoy today's podcast and found value in it, can you please SHARE IT with someone who will benefit also. Maybe it's your kids who now have kids themselves and want to start a tradition. Or maybe it's a coach or trainer who wants to start a tradition like this for their student-athletes, knowing this is a great way to drop in wisdom to their kid.
