About this listen

Discipline, standards, accountability, behavior — all are words that can make or break a team. In this episode of The Coaching Life, Chris and Pat dive into the tough conversations around holding athletes accountable.

When a player shows up late, displays bad body language, or challenges team standards, how should a coach respond? Is it about punishment, or is it about teaching life lessons that extend far beyond the field?

Through real-life case studies, we explore:

  • ​Why consistency in discipline matters
  • ​The tension between talent and team culture.
  • ​Creative ways to make discipline a positive part of player development.

Whether you’re a coach, parent, or player, this conversation will challenge how you think about consequences, standards, and the role of sports in shaping character.
