In this episode of 'Get the Lax Scoop,' hosts Big Dawg and Jaybird dive deep into the world of lacrosse with Bryan Kelly, a six-time MIAA champion and four-time Coach of the Year from Calvert Hall High School. Coach Kelly discusses the importance of focusing on the process rather than the outcome and shares insights from his pivotal, life changing, 2012 season, when his team was ranked number one in the country. The podcast also stresses the significance of mental resilience, sportsmanship, and the principles outlined in Stephen Covey's 'The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.' Kelly advises parents on how to support their children better and critiques the current youth and club lacrosse culture, which is heavily influenced by social media and a preoccupation with rankings. The episode wraps up with entertaining coach impersonations and a discussion on nurturing young players' growth and development. A must-listen for players, parents, and coaches invested in the sport of lacrosse.
