successful coaching that reaches far beyond the scoreboard.
When Coach Roz opened his heart to a larger cause, it not only changed the lives of countless at-risk children, it changed him, too. Candidly and openly, he shares how those changes came about, admitting (perhaps even confessing) his shortcomings and how he learned to use those perceived faults to bring his coaching—and his character—up to another level.
As you walk with Roz through his story, you’ll see how he teaches his students to be winners, regardless of the score. You’ll hear him talk about real character and true integrity. You’ll learn about the non-negotiable priorities he teaches his Playmakers.
As you read about his players’ lives and their challenges, you’ll see how leading with compassion changed the trajectory of these young people and made it possible for them to learn how to be responsible citizens and have a better life. You see, being a Playmaker isn’t just for the short time they are in high school. It’s a way of life, and that relationship reaches far beyond the school years—both for the kids they work with and for the men who coach them.
