About this listen
In this episode of the You Can Play Podcast, Brock Robinson Barclay — lifelong athlete, hockey and baseball coach, and sport management professional — joins us to talk about how culture is built, one small moment at a time.
Drawing on experiences across locker rooms, teams, and community events, Brock shares how trust and teaching are the foundation of a healthy team environment. From addressing slurs on the ice to celebrating players’ individuality off it, he reflects on what it means to create a space where everyone feels like they belong — not just as athletes, but as people.
Brock talks about moving away from “punishment culture,” the difference between discipline and teaching, and how tiny gestures of care — like a shin tap — can rebuild trust when words fall short. His philosophy is simple but powerful: “If someone feels safe enough to be themselves on your team, that’s a win.”
