🔧 Build the Machine #2: Start. Stop. Continue.
A few days ago I asked what you want from this community:
- Spring ball practice ideas
- Culture / team building
- Leadership & captains
- Offense
- Player accountability
- Weekly messaging
👉 Today hits #2 and #5 immediately.
They need to fix what’s already happening.
🧠 The Tool (Send This Today)
Send your team a Google Form with 3 questions:
START – What do we need more of?
STOP – What’s hurting our team?
CONTINUE – What must we keep doing?
⚡ Why this works
- Players are more honest (no peer pressure)
- You hear from everyone
- You get real data
🚘 No one washes a rental car.
Players don’t invest in what they don’t own. But when they have a voice…
- They protect it
- They care about it
- They hold each other accountable
🎯 Now do this (don’t skip it)
- Review the responses
- Look for patterns (what shows up the most)
- Pull out your top 2–3 “STOP” and “START” items
- Bring it to the team and talk about it
Don’t lecture. Don’t spin it.
Let them see it. Let them own it.
🏈 Run this every 3–4 months.Your team will start to expect it—and value it.
*Also send it to your assistant coaches.
You’ll get honest feedback on your staff, structure, and communication—not just your players.
