Emilio C. Cruz

When coaching athletes, my goal is to help them grow not just on the field but as well as off the field. I will build an environment where the athletes can trust the coaching staff and trust one another. Establishing relationships, creating opportunities, developing players, building self-resilience, while still having fun are the 5 foundational blocks I value. My goal in a program is to be a warm demander with the athletes while helping them reach their full potential and enhancing their skills. I believe that it is important for every athlete to be confident within themselves but also acknowledging that there is always room for improvement. As I once fell in love with the game of baseball, I hope the athletes experience that same feeling and learn valuable skills that can be used in the real world. Behind all this, I always keep in mind that there is no real cookie cutter approach to making a good player or great person.
