đź’Ľ ACTING LIKE A PRO
JCS Future Builders Standard of Professionalism
“Professionalism is not about perfection. It’s about how you carry yourself when no one’s watching.”
âś… What Professionalism Looks Like:
- Showing up on time, ready to work
- Speaking with respect to coaches, teammates, refs, and staff
- Owning mistakes and learning from them
- Dressing and acting in a way that represents your team and future
- Following through on your word, whether it’s schoolwork, practice, or community work
🤝 Why It Matters:
- People trust you faster when you act with discipline and maturity
- You get more opportunities (internships, scholarships, leadership roles)
- It builds a culture of greatness around you
- You become a role model — for your team, your school, and your city
🔑 How to Practice It Daily:
- 🎯 Be where you said you’d be, on time
- 📢 Use words that build people up, not tear them down
- 🎒 Keep your gear clean and ready
- đź“‹ Handle your business without being told twice
- 🧠Think ahead — what needs to be done before the next practice, game, or meeting?
đź’ˇ Real Talk:
Professionalism isn’t about wearing dress shoes.
It’s about how you handle your attitude, your time, and your responsibilities.
Anyone can act professional — you just need to decide that your name means something.
✨ Future Builders = Youth + Vision + Action
You don’t have to be grown to be professional.
You just have to be locked in and leveling up.
