Every season near the end I tell myself \u201cI wish I would\u2019ve gone over this sooner\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To a degree, your coaching situation influences how you start each season. After all, it&#8217;s different working with a bunch of 12 year-olds than with a college team, for example. I think the one thing that should be consistent in all situations, however, is something brought up by a responder to the question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Most talks center around willingness to experiment, searching for adjustments, going for it, being open to change &#8230; Just helping us get minds into a good place to learn and be good teammates.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every team needs this sort of thing at the beginning of a new season. It&#8217;s basically setting the expectations and tone for things to come. It gives you a consistent point of reference moving forward. I&#8217;ve got a couple of posts related to this sort of thing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/coachingvb.com\/the-cultural-risks-in-taking-over-a-new-program-late\/\">The cultural risks in taking over a new program late<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/coachingvb.com\/ideas-for-new-team-integration\/\">Ideas for new team integration<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/coachingvb.com\/priorities-for-coaching-a-new-team\/\">Priorities for coaching a new team<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The rest of it should be based on your specific needs. There are some different aspects to this.
