Welcome to another episode of Coaching Youth Hoops, where we tackle the challenges and celebrate the successes of youth basketball coaching. I'm your host, Steve Collins, joined by co-host Bill Flitter. Today, we dive into a topic every coach hopes to avoid but inevitably faces: getting blown out in a game. We explore effective strategies to maintain morale and drive improvement even when the scoreboard is discouraging.
In this episode, we'll uncover practical tips on how to keep your team focused and motivated during lopsided games. Bill advises controlling what you can and finding small successes within the game. Steve adds that breaking the game into smaller, manageable goals.
We also highlight the importance of conveying positive outcomes in post-game huddles, reinforcing that every game has learning opportunities.
