Texas coaches - summer conditioning

In total agreement with Coach Campbell, the sooner the better. Summer vacations planned by parents are not a thing to be toyed with! That is a sure fire way to get in the dog house! Whatever schedule you arrive at, it won't satisfy everyone. But by working together with them, as much as is possible, will get you a lot of support. You need the young athlete working on summer conditioning, but his parents need him as part of their vacation plans. In trying to get the job done, from both perspectives, try not to become to dogmatic. These kids today are alot different than kids of even 10 years ago, and you can't cut your nose off to spite your face, if you get my drift. Remember, you catch more flies with honey, than you do with vinegar. Good luck.
