Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” 2018 Football Parent Meeting -Thank you all for being here. -We are very excited for the season to come with all of our teams, Freshman through Varsity. -Clear Falls is a wonderful place to be for many reasons.

  2. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” Training Staff We have 2 fully certified and highly experienced athletic trainers. Joe Parker and Jessica Morales. They oversee a staff of student trainers who work tirelessly to provide for our athletes. Our athletes safety is always our number one priority. When an athlete gets injured he or she must see our training staff. They are experts in getting them the proper care they need. They determine when they are recovered from an injury and able to play again. All players are expected to see the training staff for treatment in the mornings when injured. This puts the athlete in position to get healed up in the best manner possible. All players are expected to dress out during the athletic period and after school for practice when injured. They will be put on a rehab program determined by our training staff to get them back to full strength. All players and parents are expected to treat our training staff and student trainers with the utmost respect.

  3. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” Parent expectations form. Make no negative remarks to officials, players, coaches, or spectators. Applaud superior play by both teams. Support coaches consistently regardless of the result. *Our staff contributes 80 plus hours a week to teaching and coaching our student-athletes. *Our staff has over 150 years of coaching experience. *Multiple district championships and dozens of playoff game experience amongst us. *We want what’s best for our players. Negativity towards the coaching staff accomplishes nothing. Never use foul language or obscene gestures at a game or practice. Cooperate immediately with any request by the game officials. Any parent not meeting parent standards will be required to leave the playing/practicing area. CCISD reserves this right.

Tuesday and Thursday tutorial expectations. Eligibility requirements At the 6 week progress report players become ineligible if they have below a 70 in any class. They lose eligibility at 2:30 the following Friday. This doesn’t mean they don’t practice! They are expected to still be at all team activities. The actual game is what they are ineligible to participate in. After 3 weeks if they are passing all their classes they regain eligibility the following Friday at 2:30. AEP, upon returning from AEP placement CCISD student athletes are suspended for 30 school days from competition. 2nd AEP placement is a 60 school day suspension. Athletics are never the reason a student-athlete fails a class. Poor time management, lack of work ethic, etc. are.

  8. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” “Your child’s success or lack of success in sports does not indicate what kind of parent you are. But, having an athlete that is coachable, respectful, a great teammate, mentally tough, resilient, and tries their best IS a direct reflection of your parenting.”

  9. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” Quitting • CCISD District Athletics policy states that if a student-athlete quits a sport during that sports season that athlete cannot begin workouts/practices with the next sport he/she wishes to play until the sport they are quitting season has ended completely. • At Clear Falls we 100% support this policy. • Those athletes that do chose to quit will be placed in PE until their current sport season ends. Timelines do not matter in this scenario. • One of the biggest values we are trying to teach is that of commitment and overcoming adversity. • Quitters are not wanted at Clear Falls High School!

School examples (Texas, Texas A&M) • Football Championship Subdivision (FCS), used to be called Division 1AA. • 63 football scholarships. Most schools divide those up giving partials. • School examples (Stephen F. Austin, Sam Houston St., McNeese St.) • Division II, 36 football scholarships, most schools divide those up giving partials. • School examples (Texas A&M Commerce, West Texas A&M, Tarleton State) • Division III, do not give athletic scholarships. Examples (Austin College, Mary-Hardin Baylor) • NAIA, separate governing body for collegiate athletics. Very few in Texas. • Junior College, 2 year institutions that do offer various forms of scholarships. • School examples (Blinn, Navarro, Tyler)

  14. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” Average Height/Weight and 40 time of FBS football recruits Quarterback: 6-2, 210. 4.6 Wide Receiver: 6-0, 193. 4.5 Tight End: 6-4, 244. 4.6 Running Back: 5-10, 205. 4.5 Offensive Line: 6-4, 298. 5.1 Defensive Tackle: 6-2, 281. 4.9 Defensive End: 6-3, 253. 4.7 Linebacker: 6-1, 226. 4.6 Safety: 6-0, 200. 4.6 Cornerback: 5-11, 183. 4.5 *These numbers drop in all 3 categories as you go down in level from FBS through Division III.

  15. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” How does recruiting work? Each year in the spring and then again in the fall colleges come by to inquire about prospects. This past school year we had coaches from 50 plus schools come by to find out about our potential recruits. We tell them the truth about a prospects character, academics, work ethic, athletic ability, potential, etc. Those schools want to know if the prospects they are interested in will pass NCAA eligibility requirements. These requirements can be found at the NCAA Eligibility Center website. Must have a certain core GPA in line with ACT/SAT test score. Sliding scale. If an athlete can’t meet those requirements NCAA institutions can’t offer them. NAIA and Junior College’s can still potentially recruit that athlete. The schools want to know what type of character the athlete has. In today’s society they don’t want to take many risks on low character athletes. They will check social media. They will do their research. Ways that schools show interest: Letters, mean very little. Generally part of a large data base. Contacting the athletes via phone, twitter, at camps etc., more significant. Shows there is an interest level. Camps can be a benefit. Must remember that camps are for showcasing a players skills. Camps should not get in the way of opportunities for players to improve upon their skills by being at our workouts. Beware of “catfishing”.

  16. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” What are the ingredients of a successful program? Best players are the hardest workers. Those best players then demand excellence from their teammates. Creates a player-driven environment where all members give their very best at all times for their teammates. A culture of not wanting to let your teammate down. This then gets passed on to the younger players when they arrive. They feel the expectation of continuing that high standard of excellence. This along with a team of players with high moral character creates success. Must commit during the summer! Can not afford to lose all we gain from the off-season during the Summer. SWAT must be the first priority. Camps and other activities second in the summer. If you want this program to be successful the commitment to SWAT must be tremendous!

  17. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” “Reminder Club” -”Reminders” for poor decisions made by Knight players. -Simple formula for maintaining discipline in the program. Gator 2 x 100 yard up-downs. Over and back across the field bear crawls. Examples resulting in a “Gator” reminder. -Minor classroom discipline issues.

Examples resulting in a “Falcon” reminder. -Locker room discipline. -Late to the athletic period or practice (1st time) -Missing tutorials. -Classroom discipline issue notified by teacher.

  19. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” Charger 8 x100 yard up-downs. 4 x 100 yard bear crawls. Examples resulting in a “Charger” reminder. -Skipping any class including the athletic period. -Late to the athletic period or practice (2nd time) -Behavior unbecoming of a student athlete. -Time spent in ISS/D-Hall. 1 per each day. -Unsatisfactory conduct grade.

  20. Clear Falls Football2018 Parent Meeting“Win The Moment” Fundraisers Outfitting 200 plus athletes for football is expensive. The basic budget provided has to be aided by fundraisers in order to give our athletes the best equipment, video materials, and training materials needed. We need your support in encouraging our athletes to sell their allotment of “Knight Cards”. The Booster Club needs your support in helping with Booster Club fundraisers throughout the year. In addition the Booster Club needs your support in helping to see to it that our student-athletes are provided with every opportunity to be successful.
