421: Laying a Foundation for Your Season

Podcast accessible on: iTunes |  Spotify  | YouTube

You’ve heard the quote, "By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail," but how much time do you spend preparing your team's culture? In this episode, hosts JP Nerbun, Nate Sanderson, and Betsy Butterick break down why an intentional plan for your culture is just as critical—if not more so—than your tactical systems. They reveal the biggest excuses coaches use to avoid this essential work and share actionable strategies to build a strong foundation. Learn how to align your staff, connect with your athletes on a deeper level, and proactively engage with parents to create a culture that can withstand the pressures of a long season.
