"In the end, it’s extra effort that separates a winner from second place. But winning takes a lot more that that, too. It starts with complete command of the fundamentals. Then it takes desire, determination, discipline, and self-sacrifice. And finally, it takes a great deal of love, fairness and respect for your fellow man. Put all these together, and even if you don’t win, how can you lose?"
-Jesse Owens, Won 4 Gold Medals in Track & Field at the 1936 Olympics

"Good coaching is about leadership and instilling respect in your players. Dictators lead through fear--good coaches do not."
-John Wooden, NBA Hall of Fame Coach & Player

"Sportsmanship for me is when a guy walks off the court and you really can't tell whether he won or lost, when he carries himself with pride either way."
-Jim Courier, Former World Number One Professional Tennis Player
