40 PRAYERS

In this book, there are 40 simple prayers that coaches can use to focus on various topics that will impact their player’s lives.

ANY SPORT AND ANY LEVEL

This book is applicable to all sports and levels of coaching. Whether you are a coach for a youth team, high school team, college team, club team, or professional team, this book is relevant for you. Although the requirements of players at different levels may differ, the goal of winning their hearts remains the same.

MORE THAN AN ATHLETE

This book will show you that our athletes are more than their skill ability. There will be a day when we realize it’s more than the X’s and O’s that we knew and more about the heart and souls that we grew.

LEAVE THEM BETTER THAN WE FOUND THEM

We have been asked to coach these athletes for a few weeks, months, or even a few seasons. It is our responsibility to help them improve and grow during this time. Whether it is through our conversations with them or through our prayers, we have been entrusted with the task of making them better. Our goal is to leave them in a better place than where we found them.

Matthew 25:21 – His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’
