Caiman Football Newsletter – October 13

Week 12 – Preparation

This week, there’s no opponent to chase. No game to gear up for. No scoreboard to settle it.

That’s why it’s one of the most important weeks of the season.

Our Word of the Week is Preparation. Not just getting ready—but building something real. Building discipline, focus, and habits that will carry into whatever comes next.

Preparation shows up in the quiet. In the way we approach meetings. In how we attack warm-ups. In our body language during scout. In the way we coach each other and stay sharp together. It’s not flashy. But it’s everything.

Champions don’t rise in the moment—they fall back on what they’ve built. This week is about building the foundation for what’s next.

Let’s prep like it’s the key to everything—Built Different means we don’t waste weeks.
