In the video, Ehrmann asks men to think about how they would act if another man sexually, physically or verbally assaulted a woman they loved, encouraging them to raise a generation of men who “have the moral courage to call out other men.”

“What’s a team? A team is nothing more than a set of relationships for a cause,” he says. “But every team is built on the trust the respect, the integrity and the dignity of ever team member.”

The anti-violence session will be rolled out to all 32 teams over the coming weeks.
