TALENT NEEDS CHARACTER
Talent opens doors. Character keeps you in the room.
Talent Needs Character is a book for athletes about how to handle pressure, own their choices, and become the kind of teammate coaches talk about for the right reasons.
It’s written for:
Middle School, High School, and club athletes
Programs that care about who their athletes are becoming, not just what they’re scoring
Short chapters. Real stories. Zero fluff. Easy to read and easy to implement.
Talent Needs Character – Facilitation Guide

You’ll get:
50 bite-sized session plans built around the book
Huddle questions that actually get athletes talking
Simple activities and weekly challenges that fit into 10–15 minutes
A clear path to run this over a season or the whole year
Perfect for:
Leadership groups
Weekly character sessions
Preseason and in-season culture work
No PowerPoint needed. No hours of prep. Just open the guide, grab a session, and coach.
