PRESS RELEASE: Willis HS Athletics Hosting Texas Way Sportsmanship Assembly After Cleveland Incident
Willis, TX – Willis High School will be hosting a sportsmanship assembly for all student-athletes following the unsportsmanlike incident at a recent football game against Cleveland High School. Looking to turn that negative incident into a learning opportunity, school leadership has invited player development coach Stephen Mackey, founder of 2Words Character Development, to meet with the student-athletes about The Texas Way, a statewide sportsmanship initiative launched in partnership with the Texas High School Coaches Association and Texas High School Athletic Directors Association.
The curriculum of the Texas Way focuses on three pillars:
- Respect for Others: The Texas Way teaches respect that goes beyond the scoreboard. It’s about who we are, not what others do.
- Control of Self: This pillar is about maintaining composure and grace, especially when the stakes are high. The Texas Way encourages handling challenges with class.
- Spirit of Competition: We’re here to win, but not at the cost of integrity. The Texas Way promotes giving your best effort while holding true to your values.
WHO: Willis High School football coach & athletic director, Trent Miller and Stephen Mackey, founder of 2Words Character Development
WHAT: Texas Way Sportsmanship Assembly for all student-athletes
WHEN: Tuesday, October 22, 2024 at 1:30 p.m.
WHERE: Willis High School
Willis, TX 77378
**Everyone must check in at the front office
WHY: To make good sportsmanship a way of life throughout the state
NOTES:
- Please RSVP to Kirk Reynolds, kirkreynoldspr@gmail.com, if you plan to cover the assembly.
- Trent Miller, Stephen Mackey and Willis ISD Superintendent Dr. Kimberley James will be available for interviews after the assembly.
