Finding team leaders

There is a great saying that I quote all the time and that is, “When the real leader speaks everyone shuts up and listens.” I have never seen this fail. I have always seen it come to pass. There is always one player that the rest of the team listens to. Let’s take a quick quiz and see what you think.


  1. _____________ is one of the most competitive players on the team.
What name popped in your head to fill in that blank?
     2.  ______________ leads through encouragement and energy.
What name do you think should be in that blank?  
     3.  ______________ puts the team first in all decisions and actions.
That is a hard one…. we are work through selfish desires but who comes to mind when you read that question?
     4.  ______________ leads by example in practice, in weights, on the road, and in the classroom.
We all know that teammate…. Maybe it is you. That is okay to put.


That was a quick four question quiz that can give you some hints to who the real leader is on your team. The reason teammates listen to that one teammate when she or he speaks is because of the actions that back it up. If you are the leader on the team, great! Keep that up. If you are not a team leader then support your leader. That not only will make you a better teammate but leader as well.  

Keep working hard and work together!
