Vince Lombardi, arguably one of the greatest NFL coaches of all time, and John Wooden, the legendary NCAA coach, both instilled into their players one basic premise: get the fundamentals right if you want to succeed.
Lombardi, known for his famous quote “Gentlemen, this is a football,” started the training for each season at the most basic level. Wooden began the training of his new recruits by reviewing how to put on socks and tie shoes.
Two of the most revered coaches in the country, who would lead their teams to monumental victories against all odds and fierce opponents, were committed to focusing on the fundamentals. Why? To quote Lombardi again, “Excellence is achieved by mastery of the fundamentals.”
