Hi Coach,
I’ll admit this upfront…
If I don’t write something down, it ceases to exist as far as my brain is concerned.
I rely heavily on lists and organizational tools.
That may be the teacher in me, but whatever the reason, I need structure to make the best use of my day…(who doesn’t!)
So when I saw this tool, I loved it.
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for.
I mean, every coach has a plan they go through to prep for tryouts and preseason “rituals”, but I’ve NEVER seen anything as detailed as this.
I literally put aside the forms and notes I’ve been using for years, and replaced them with this “secret weapon”.
Coach Derek Sheridan, who runs the show at Delta High School (OH), is my new favorite coach.
He’s gone over and above with this 17-page basketball-specific preseason planning tool.
Here are just a few of the topics that I ripped right from the Table of Contents:
- Team Logistics, Strengths, Weaknesses, & Change
- Team & Individual Defense
- Man-to-Man Defense Fundamentals Teaching Progression
- Zone Defense Teaching Progression
- Zone Defense Breakdown Drills Progression
- Man-to-Man O’ Concepts Teaching Order
- Man-to-Man Actions Teaching Order
