In this episode, I take a quick look at three areas that make your camp go but aren't talked about very often.
1. Online Sign-Ups
2. Liability Waivers and Liability Insurance
3. Staffing (Hiring/Volunteers)
Each area is important and shouldn't be overlooked but I know they aren't as fun as drills and games.😉

In today's episode, we listen in on a Friday Coaching Clinic I held at CoachMattDennis.com on the 6 Overlooked Skills That Win Games. These skills are things your players likely know how to do but they don't do them enough of the time to make them automatic in games. You'll also be reminded that players will do what the coach emphasizes. If coaches don't add these skills to the workout or practices they will likely cost you a game or two.
Find the next Friday Coaching Clinic by visiting coachmattdennis.com. If you can't make a clinic live be sure to sign-up so you'll receive the replay and resources I discuss during each clinic session.

This week I take a look at two different ways to set up a system for your baseline and sideline out of bounds plays. Having an organized approach for your players to think and remember out of bounds plays is critical to getting the most out of each play. It also helps when you would like to add new wrinkles when playing an opponent a second time or playing against a team who has done a good job scouting you in tournament play.
Check out the Coaching Lab at coachmattdennis.com if you'd like proven out of bounds plays for any level of basketball.
