Team Character and Leadership Development

What Do Athletic Director's and Coaches Say About The Value Of Habitudes Character Coaching?

"As the Athletic Director and Boys Basketball Coach, FCA and Habitudes has been a major success with my team and with other teams within our School's Athletic Program. It has allowed our student athletes to grow in all areas of life including on the playing fields and courts.

I personally think Habitudes and FCA should be instilled and introduced throughout Osceola County because of how much impact it has made with our teams. We will continue to move forward with FCA and Habitudes because of the impact it has made with our Gateway Family."

Gateway Athletic Director, Coach Travis James

Habitudes have helped to bring our players together and begin to build the foundation of our football program by discussing key areas we feel are the cornerstone of a football family (determination, leadership, desire, and accountability). The weekly discussion about each Character and Leadership area with the team provided our players the opportunity to discuss, ask questions and understand how these principles apply not only to football, but also life.

Over a period of time we began to see a change in the way our players associated and treated each other. They began to hold each other accountable and help each grow as a player and person. Their desire to be a great player and person began to show in their daily preparation for practice and school. Thanks to our Habitudes Character Coaches, they have helped our Tohopekaliga Football program build the foundation we need to establish a solid program that will last for over time.

Athletic departments succeed when there is a culture of discipline, resilience, and personal ownership both on and off the field. Through our partnership with Growing Leaders, FCA can develop this form of culture through the Habitudes Student-Athlete Leadership Program. We have the incredible opportunity to offer professional and college level Character and Leadership development for your sport specific teams. This athletic leadership development system is based on the series of books entitled Habitudes®: Images that Form Leadership Habits and Attitudes, written by Dr. Tim Elmore, President of Growing Leaders.

We are able to achieve time-tested results in as little as 30 minutes per week over an 8-12 week schedule. FCA will provide you with a trained Habitudes Character Coach that will engage your teams through an empowering student-athlete leadership program for this new generation of athletes. The core of our process, is a student-athlete leadership training system that develops resilience, emotional intelligence, and personal ownership.
