Non-Negotiables?

Non-negotiable by textbook definition refers to something not being up for debate or change.

 

In order to succeed, not only as an athlete but as a student, YOU must be disciplined. Struggle and success are one of the same. Night and Day isn't only about volleyball success but also seeks success in our athletes' daily lives. Night and Day is a club that learns from the struggles that lead to success.

What Are Our Non-Negotiables?

Tribe Mentality

Embody a sense of family that goes beyond traditional teamwork. Each athlete/coach is dedicated to inspiring one another, fostering growth and excellence in the sport while creating a vibrant and supportive atmosphere. 

Discipline

The distinction between a good athlete and a great athlete lies in the latter's endurance and self-discipline. Great athletes don't get tired. Great athletes are comfortable being uncomfortable. No matter the time or day they get up every morning ready to put in the work, day in and day out. They remain disciplined.

Growth Mindset

Embrace a growth mindset rather than a fixed mindset. By viewing challenges as opportunities for learning and development rather than as problems or annoyances, you'll cultivate curiosity and embrace feedback. Every setback is a steppingstone towards improvement and success. 

Be a Sponge

Commit to continuous learning and embrace your curiosity. Never stop seeking knowledge, as each new insight can lead to personal and professional growth. Stay open-minded and proactive in your pursuit of understanding. 

Accountability

The level of effort you invest is directly correlated with your progress. By holding yourself accountable, you assume control of your personal development. It is essential to recognize increased effort leads to greater outcomes. Embrace this responsibility to facilitate your success and growth.

Strive to be Better

Central to our philosophy is a commitment to continuous improvement. Whether it be in the sport of volleyball or as a person dealing with life, we recognize that there are always opportunities for growth and that the pursuit of progress is crucial for achieving greater success. 

Respect

Acknowledging the significance of the roles played by coaches, athletes, and parents is essential. Equally important is respect towards each role, as well as the sport itself. When all parties appreciate each other's contributions, it cultivates a collaborative environment that forms a solid foundation of excellence in athletics.

Simplicity

Simplicity is essential for effective navigation in volleyball. By prioritizing simplicity, we clear the clutter and focus on what truly matters. This mindset paves the way for clear and direct decision-making.

Enjoy the Process

If you don’t find joy in the process, no matter how challenging it may be, the end goal will seem even more distant. Embracing the journey makes the hard work feel worthwhile and brings you closer to your aspirations. Remember, every step with enthusiasm and purpose helps bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be. Stay engaged and you'll find that the goal becomes more attainable.
