You have a united goal that came from your athletes. You have eight or so months to prepare and you are going to prepare everyday at an eleven rate. <br><br>ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES<br><br>There will be mistakes and problems with athletes during this eight-month period. There are definite rules on how to handle these situations with the most powerful motivational tool that has been presented. It is critical to remain focused on the goal while remaining positive.<br>HANDLING MISTAKES: When an athlete makes a mistake or does not fulfill his/her commitment to being an eleven, you cannot say,  Listen, you little twink. You better shape up or else. I m sick and tired of you screwing up. Don t react to a situation--Act. Act with a preplanned strategy. For example, my favorite to acknowledge an error in judgement is to say,  I thought you said that you wanted to be an eleven? Then pause.  What would an eleven do? Pause.  We need you with us. Can I count on you from now on? <br><br>This strategy corrects the situation with a positive resolve with the athlete to do better. Normally, athletes react with a lot of self guilt. No need to rub it in. Always leave the encounter showing that you care. A firm handshake and a smile is an eleven way to do it. <br><br>HANDLING CONTINUAL PROBLEMS: This can be a team decision made at the same time as the goal. Just ask the team,  What if someone just won t be an eleven and is cor any ideas to improve the team, and one of the suggestions was to have the kids earn their way onto the team.  In the past we didn t cut anybody---if a kid wanted to come out for football he was going to play. So at the end of February I told the kids that from Memorial Day until the first day of practice in mid-August, to make the team each one of them had to put in 48 hours of training---in the weight room or on the field running or doing plyos or agility work. <br>When two-a-days started and the media came out with its pre-season predictions, Kappelmeier found no mention of High Point High School. True to tradition, the Wildcats were expected to lose.<br>Their opening game was against Sparta, a team that was supposed to be one of the contenders for the league title. High Point beat them 10-3. Says Kappelmeier,  It was a very tough, physical game. And although we made some big mistakes on offense in the fourth quarter, they couldn t do a thing against our defense. We were simply physically stronger than they were. <br>Amazingly, the streak continued and the Wildcats victories started piling up. The fans poured into the stands, the crowds grew larger each week. By week eight the Wildcats were 6-1 and up against Pope John High School from Sparta. Pope John was coming into the game undefeated, and High Point needed to beat them to at least share the league title. But there was added incentive.  The previous year they had beaten us 52-13, and threw at the end. With more than 2000 fans cheering them on, the Wildcats earned their vindication with a 24-14 victory.<br>The last regular season game was against the team from Vernon, which had beaten the Wildcats 34-6 the previous year and had shared the league title. Vernon also had a larger talent pool of athletes as they had over 500 more students enrolled than High Point. But you don t win titles on paper, and the ferocious Wildcats ran, passed, blocked and tackled their way to a 28-10 win and a berth in the state playoffs.<br>The first game of the playoffs was against Northern Highlands High School in Allendale.
