We had some successful games but our last game was so frustrating, Nobody was happy, it seemed like everyone was either pointing the finger at our lack of success or just giving up and we weren't having any fun.

Okay—I’ve equipped my captains. In the past I’ve had to step in when a captain’s behavior seemed out of character, but now I’d like to put a more formal structure in place to support them.

This year, our high school captains were great athletes and outstanding students, but I felt like I had to babysit them throughout the season and never really got the lift I was expecting from their leadership. Is it them, or is it me? I want to make sure I get the most from my captains next season.

As a coach, I’m struggling to identify the best method for selecting team captains. Should it be a vote, my decision, or earned through performance?

It’s like everything I’m doing lately is missing the mark. I’m trying to figure out what’s going on, but I just feel stuck.

I feel as though I am constantly telling my athletes the same things over and over again…
