Build more committed, consistent, and competitive athletes in 30 days
Through our proven framework you’ll witness your team change into a player led team, with greater accountability, better commuication, stronger relationships, and improved performance.
9 OUT OF 10 COACHES FEEL THEIR TEAM IS NOT REACHING ITS FULL POTENTIAL
Can you relate?
Of course you can.
As coaches, we believe there is always a higher level our team can reach.
In order to reach that next level it is essential your players demonstrate the highest level of committment, consistancy, and compteativeness.
Have you exsperienced any of these behaviors:
- Players who are “IN”, but not “ALL- IN”
- Players who lack consistency
- Players who don’t seem to care “enough”
- Players who aren’t willing to hold teammates to a higher standard
- Players who don’t exhibit the level of energy and enthusiasm needed to perform at their best
If you have seen any of these behaviors in your program then Lead ‘Em Up’s Leadership Framework is for YOU!
The success of your season is riding on this
You don’t want to go through another season with a team not reaching their full potential.
Our players need to show up each day at a high level in order to get our team to reach their full potential.
Unfortunately, players have a tendency to:
- Miss practice
- Give inconsistent effort
- Show selfish behaviors
- Inability to communicate well
- Lack of focus on the details
- Struggle to hold themselves and others accountable
Our Leadership Framework will help assure these player tendencies don’t show up in your program.

The 7 Parts of the Framework
Part 1: Green Team
understand what it takes to build a special team
The Green Team is a dynamic teaching exercise that provides players with an understanding of what it takes to build a special team. The players get introduced to our unique language and the seven Green Team rules. During the exercise players will score their current performance and begin the process of building their Green Team.
Part 2: Green Standards
Align the Team to the Same set of standards
During the Green Standards section, your players will engage in a collaborative group exercise using what they learned in the Green Team exercise to creatively build out their Green Standards. The Green Standards will align the team so everyone has a clear understanding of what it means to be “Green” on the team. The Green Standards will be uploaded and produced in a customized Team Card each player will receive.
Part 3: Green Awards
Celebrate those who are living those standards
Once the rules of the Green Team have been communicated and the Green Standards established, each team will receive in the mail their Green Team kit which includes a collection of awards. The Awards will be introduced during the rollout but distributed throughout the season. The players individually will work to earn Verification status, at year-end, an MVG (Most Valuable Green) will be celebrated and select players will be eligible for our nationally recognized Green13 award.
Part 4: Lifeguard
Implement a structure of Accountability
As the foundation of the Green Team continues to settle it is time to begin implementing the accountability structure. Your players will be introduced to a dynamic “Lifeguarding” teaching concept that will completely shift how they hold each other accountable. Your players will be provided with the tools, language, and structure to hold each accountable like never before.
Part 5: My 6
Make sure no one slips through the cracks
To ensure the accountability structure is fully secured you will now introduce the “6” exercise. One of the players’ favorite exercises, this season-long exercise will provide an additional layer of accountability to make sure “no one slips through the cracks” and helps guarantee everyone stays Green, all season long.
Part 6: Same Page
Build Mental Toughness …the fun way
This fun, interactive exercise is designed to illustrate the process of building a Green Team. Through the journey of building the Green Team, there will be ups and downs. The Same Page exercise will prepare your players to begin building the mental toughness and understanding of what it will take to successfully build their Green Team. Be prepared for laughs and the competitive spirit to come out in this exercise.
Part 7: 40 Red Dash
Equip players with the tools they need to escape their negative attitude
We conclude the 7-part Green Team framework by working with the players to improve their specialized “Run from Red 40-Yd Dash” speed. All players have bad days, make mistakes, and have moments where they may show up “red” but the key is how you respond. In this innovative teaching, your players will be equipped with the tools to bounce back, get back on track, and “run from red.” This teaching may single-handedly win you one or two more games this season.
30-DAY MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE
If you don’t see more committed, consistent, and competitive athletes at the end of those 30 days you get your money back.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I gain access to the Framework?
After purchase you gain access to the Framework for 12 months
How Much Does it Cost?
$149/yearly …that’s it
Who teaches the Framework to the players?
The Coach. You can have the Head Coach or Assistant Coach facilitate the exercises and teachings to the team. Think along of the lines of a coach learning a new offensive set online or at a coaching clinic and then rolling it out with the team. Same approach here. We’ll give you everything you need to roll it out well.
What is the ideal age to use the Framework?
The Framework has been uniquely designed to produce more committed, consistent and competitive athletes as young as 4th grade through high level collegiate athletes.
What is the ideal sport to use the Framework?
All sports. If you’ve been following us you will see the Framework elevating athletes in sports ranging from football, cheerleading, lacrosse, cross country, basketball and more.
Can I have someone from Lead ‘Em Up rollout the Framework?
Absolutely. In fact we’d love to. Despite being able to roll out the program yourself, many coaches choose to have us come out and host a Campus Day or Training Camp and roll out the Framework with the team. If you’re interested in having us work with your athletes, email us at [email protected] for more details and pricing.
What if I have multiple teams who want to access the Framework?
We have an athletic program option for $449 that you can select for multiple teams. For example, if you’re an Athletic Director (or maybe you oversee a youth sports organization) and want all your teams to gain access to the Framework simply purchase the Athletic Program package and you’ll receive a special username/password that allows multiple teams to access the materials.
What do I do with the Green Team kit?
The kit has all the Green Awards materials. In your online access in the Green Awards exercise, you will see the instructions on how to execute our Verification program, the MVG award and Green13 award nominations.
What if I don’t see the results?
First off, you will. If you roll it out as we’ve laid it out, you will see more committed, consistent and competitive athletes in 30 days. IF for some reason you do not see an increase in these three areas, email us at the end of the 30 days and we’ll give you your money back.
How are you able to guarantee the Framework actually works?
Great question! First off, we’ve been building the Framework since 2015 and during that time we’ve worked with thousands of teams across the country constantly tweaking, adjusting, and enhancing the Framework.
We’ve learned if you’re able to package together a clear vision with the right amount of shared language, sprinkle in elements of gamification and competition, layer in dual-levels of accountability, foster a spirit of player ownership through the process and show them how it will help them win, you will see players inevitably go ALL-IN.
And to quote our friend Coach Radigan, Head Football Coach of Francis Howell Central in St. Louis, “This Green Team Framework is like Leadership Cheat Code – they have figured out all the right buttons to push to get athletes leveling up”
