From assistant AD, to full time AD at Mauldin since 2020    Notes Rely on a tight circle of coaches with any question I may have It is so rewarding to see the impact you can have on other programs  Lean on others who have done it well  Create the best experience for everyone in every program Leadership program within the whole athletic program**** Build a strong culture within the whole athletic program Community service**** We did a lot of things on a smaller scale and we want to do it on steroids Take ownership of what you do and who you are It needs to come for a deeper meaning of trust and common ground MAVS U - “Motivated Achievers Value Success”Based on Tyler Gillum Lesson based around the needs of the teamBe a good teammate, son, study skills, run down   Group activity, independent activity,  Have a video and present in front of teammates   Mavs U becomes the “Cabinet” for the Mauldin HS athletic department“What does it mean to be a Mauldin athlete?”   Cabinet will help with community service Community service - miracle league, hospital visits, angel trees, Elementary school after school programs, community clean up Kids need to have an appreciation for what they have The greatest leader in the world, washed someone else’s feet The best leadership is serving other The best leadership lesson is serving someone else Kids apply and they need to interview to be a part of the leadership task force Creating chemistry and not forcing leadership!!** Kids need a chance to get to know one another and grow relationships Leadership classroom sessions start year 1, as soon as possible! Leadership doesn’t matter if those kids don’t care about one another Be a good person! Do what you say you are going to do Bands based on behavior system.

Pinch runner called “game winner” We can know everything about a team but if we can’t make plays it doesn’t matter what we know about the other team The positive board - write it on the board something positive that has happened in the game. The average fan would not even notice. You may never see the finished product, but you need to keep plugging away because something you said will make an impact** Curriculum cannot just be 50 straight. It will always change, but you will have your pillars Mavs U based on Tyler Gillums Growth U and Brian Cain’s pride program Core values and Mission and Vision are voted on each year to own what type of team you want to beWhat does it look like a player, person, and player   “That’s Mauldin” Use the mission and vision statement based on what you want to be about and how you plan on getting there Creating chemistry over leadership - what is more important?? Creating a culture we just want to create something consistent something they can depend on We can’t try to do something and replicate something that others are doing  Coaches need to do things for who they know they have! Goes back to growth mindset.  Twitter - @Maciejewski24DM are open!

76 - Jim Maciejewski: Mauldin HS (SC)

What makes high school baseball beneficial? To me it's actually closer to what college is like. Same teammates everyday, competing against teams in your league, and winning is relevant. It's important for the game that high school baseball is still held in high regard. No better way to find out what it's like to be in high school sports than to bring on a current high school Athletic Director and Head Baseball Coach. Jim Maciejewski is currently the Athletic Director and Head Baseball Coach at Mauldin High School in Mauldin, South Carolina. In this episode Jim talks about some of the problems he sees at the high school level, dealing with parents, how he runs his baseball program, and a story of a player who struggled in high school but continued  to work and is now in MLB spring training.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
