2022 Green 13 Nominations

Green 13 is back and bigger than ever.

Two years ago we introduced our national Green 13 Program; a celebration of 13 students/athletes across the country who best represent what it means to be “GREEN”.

Previous Green 13 Recipients
Year 1 Recipients
Year 2 Recipients

In our foundational exercise The Green Team we teach the concept of needing to “be green” and “build green”. For simplification purposes, green represents “money”, which is a synonym in today’s vocabulary for “special.”  We want students/athletes who have special character and leadership.

As part of Green 13 each student/athlete will be presented a Lead ‘Em Up Green Team pack with a special Green Team verification plaque as well as FREE CHICK-FIL-A FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR courtesy of our friends at Chick-Fil-A (Kayla Smith – Owner/Operator CFA – Germantown).

As Lead ‘Em Up continues to grow, it’s becoming more challenging to narrow down our list of Green 13 candidates, which is a great problem to have.

That’s where we need your help.

If you have a student/athlete (or two) you’d like to nominate for this years Green13 please fill out the form below. Please don’t share with the student/athlete you are nominating them so if they are selected, it will be a surprise to them.

Please fill out this nomination form for the student/athlete of your choosing.

We will collect nominations through May 2nd. Coaches will be notified of the winners chosen during the week of May 3-7th.

Submissions are closed


Have fun and #LeadEmUp

Green Room Ep.7: There’s More to Being Watched

In this episode, we unpack the popular phrase “I lead by example.” A response we hear from many young leaders. But the truth is, it’s not enough. While modeling behavior is important, real leadership requires communication, accountability, correction, vision, and presence. Many fall into the trap of thinking their actions alone will inspire change, but leadership demands more. Lock in as we break down why leading by example is only the starting point, not the full playbook.

Ep. 150: When ‘I Did My Best’ Isn’t Good Enough

Ep. 150: When ‘I Did My Best’ Isn’t Good Enough

In this episode, we unpack one of the most commonly used phrases for coaches: “We did our best.” While it sounds helpful, this mindset can quietly become a limitation, a way to excuse results instead of pursuing excellence. We’ll explore how settling for your “best” can be dangerous when it becomes a cover for lack of growth, preparation, or accountability.
