Ideas and expectations for my Assistant Coaches

Philosophy
  • get to know the players – coaching is all about relationships
  • challenge me and ask questions
  • don’t be a locker room lawyer – players complain to me
  • nothing is told to you in confidence by a player – player must understand that
  • everything WE talk about is in confidence
  • absolutely no drinking or partying with the players
  • no cell phones at practice, games, meetings, etc.

Practices

  • breakdown drills – most will be mass taught
  • during team drills, take a responsibility – defense, offense, rebound – EVERY MISSED BOX-OUT/T-UP SHOULD BE POINTED OUT
  • coach/teach/communicate

Games

  • check the scorebook
  • contact news media with game results
  • pick up videotape/statistics on the road and at home
  • keep me informed about fouls, shot clock, time and score
  • offer suggestions
  • coach players when they come off the floor
  • MAKE SURE I ACKNOWLEDGE IMPORTANT INFO
