HOW SPORTS CAN TEACH CHARACTER

"One of the great myths in America is that sports build character.  They can and they should.  Indeed, sport may be the perfect venue in which to build character.  But sports don't build character unless a coach possesses character and intentionality teaches it.  Sports can team with ethics and character and spirituality; virtuous coaching can integrate the body with the heart, the mind, and the soul."
