These kids needed to take ownership of the football program. We preach to them, This is your program, and when you do take ownership of it, you will get better. <br>And get better they did, as the following year the Eagles shocked everyone except themselves by winning nine of their scheduled ten games. <br><br>Pure Energy<br><br>Hatem says that another reason he wanted to implement the BFS program at New Albany was to develop a sense of unity among all athletes.  I really believe in getting all the coaches and athletes on the same page. I just really loved the BFS philosophy f challenging why we should have a kid learn five different flexibility programs and five different strength training programs? I thought the BFS program was solid and adaptable, and we could use it for everyone. <br>Justin Sanford is a full-time athletic trainer at New Albany, and he plays a key role in the conditioning program for all sports.  What we found with this BFS program is these lifts are not just lifts that will benefit a football player or a basketball player; these are total body lifts. Every lift that's on the program is really a core component in an approach that works multiple body parts whenever the students lift.<br> In addition to the changes in the football program, Sanford saw a major difference in the girls program.  At first the female attendance was down, and we really didn't know if they were intimidated by the workout, or just weren't used to being in the weightroom, says Stanford. That quickly changed, and the girls became as much as part of the weightroom intensity as the guys.  They are one and the same. The girls motivate the guys, the guys motivate the girls, helping each other out, even screaming for each other-it's pure energy! <br><br>Ending on a Positive Note<br><br>When asked if he treats his current athletes differently than those he coached in his early years, Hatem replied,  Today's athletes are asking more questions, and it's only fair that a coach should be able to answer those questions. Fifteen years ago if a coach told you do to something, there were no questions asked. Today's kid is a little more questioning, and they want to know why. They also want a little more ownership and independence, and they want to feel they have some input and are part of what's going on. Those are the major differences. <br>As a final word of advice for football coaches, Hatem says it's important for them to involve the parents, and for this reason during the season meets with them every Wednesday to discuss previous games, upcoming games and answer any questions.  I want their input. My advise to them is, your son gets to play high school football for four years. Please, be a part of that! ceremony. The city Mayor and other community leaders attended to honor the state chaions. Money was donated that bought each player a championship ring. All-State defensive lineman Jon Haney, who led the defense with a 127 tackles, 25 for losses, was named the team s most valuable player.  Jon participated in every practice and every drill as if he were playing in a championship game. He s a dedicated player who worked hard during the off-season and showed up in the weight room every day, even during vacations, stated Coach Poss.<br><br><br><br><br><br>" <br>I have known Coach Bobby Poss for almost 20 years. We featured his first (1984) State Championship on the cover of our BFS Journal. I have been so impressed with Coach Poss not only as a coach but as an outstanding person and family man that I wanted him to be a BFS clinician. This last summer Coach Poss was our guest at our BFS Clinicians Convention. Coach Poss will be doing his first BFS Clinics as a clinician in the winter of 2001. Coach Poss, you are an Eleven!<br>
