Courtside with Doc

“When players come in to a program I am working with, and we’re trying to put together direction, we want everybody to feel that the reason that we are putting people through whatever they’re being put through—whether that’s coaching, whether it’s X’s and O’s, or whether it’s classwork—we want them to think that they’re going to be R.A.R.E. And R.A.R.E. will be separating them from everyone else who they play against.”

“R.A.R.E. is our mantra, and that’s going to set the tone for culture,” said Dr. Carr. “R stands for Relationships; you know, establishing like a brotherhood, kind of a close-knit family. A stands for Accepting Challenges; getting people to handle tough things, tough times and experiences, and being able to do it at a high level. The next R stands for Recovery from Mistakes; having people that bounce back quicker and don’t dwell on situations. And E stands for Executing Coach’s Direction, so that each player has a blind trust in the coach and their teammates.”
