About this listen
In this episode of The Coaching Life Podcast, Chris and Pat dive into how coaches can invest in the "middle-bottom" players of your roster (forgive us for that label, it's tough to describe). But, how do we keep them motivated, and how do we help them understand their value.
We’ll talk about:
Why and how the middle-bottom players often set the tone for team culture
How to define success beyond playing time
Practical ways to keep these players engaged and motivated
How to use practice to build their confidence and skill
The bigger picture: coaching every player is a "big picture" skill for coaches
Whether you coach youth sports or a high school sport, this conversation is about making sure every kid on your team is seen, valued, and developed. Because at the end of the day, it’s the whole roster that builds a team’s culture.
