https://teachhoops.com/ Solutions for Parents and Coaches Obsessed With the Win Summary Is winning the only thing that matters in youth basketball? Too many coaches fall into the trap of chasing victory at all costs, forgetting what really helps players grow. In this episode, seasoned coaches Steve Collins and Bill Flitter unravel the roots of the “win at all costs” mentality and offer a fresh, healthier perspective for coaches who want more for their players. How do you define success on your team? Listen in for game-changing tips on: Redefining what "winning" means for youth players. Building fun and long-term player motivation.

In this episode of Coach Unplugged, host Steve Collins introduces a segment from Coaching Youth Hoops. He starts by thanking sponsors Doctor Dish and teachhoops.com for their support. The focus shifts to the profound impact coaches have on their players. Using the movie "Grown Ups" as a reference, where former teammates reunite for their eighth-grade coach's funeral, the discussion highlights how deeply players remember their coaches. While players may forget specific plays or strategies, they vividly recall their coaches' personalities, how they were treated, and whether they felt valued as individuals. The episode underscores that most players won't reach professional levels, but they will remember their coaches for life. This lasting influence was evident in a 2008 Beijing Olympics study, where a strong coach-athlete relationship was identified as the most crucial factor in athletes achieving their best, surpassing equipment, training, and nutrition. To build these impactful relationships, coaches need to focus on two main aspects: helping players improve and supporting them unconditionally. Players respect and remember coaches who genuinely invest in their development and well-being. This dedication fosters a lasting, positive influence on their lives, highlighting the significant role coaches play beyond the game itself. ⁠GameChanger Website⁠ ⁠Dr Dish Website⁠ ⁠CoachingYouthHoops.com⁠ ⁠https://forms.gle/kQ8zyxgfqwUA3ChU7⁠ ⁠Coach Collins Coaching Store⁠ Check out.  [Teachhoops.com](⁠https://teachhoops.com/⁠) 14 day Free Trial Youth Basketball Coaches Podcast Apple link: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coaching-youth-hoops/id1619185302⁠ Spotify link: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/0g8yYhAfztndxT1FZ4OI3A⁠ ⁠Funnel Down Defense Podcast⁠ ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/funnel-down-defense/id1593734011⁠ Want More ⁠Funnel Down Defense⁠ ⁠https://coachcollins.podia.com/funnel-down-defense⁠ [Facebook Group .

Teachhoops.com⁠ ⁠WintheSeason.com⁠ In this episode of Coach Unplugged, host Steve Collins discusses building a successful coaching staff with co-host Coach Barker. Steve begins by thanking sponsors Doctor Dish and teachhoops.com, emphasizing their contributions to the basketball community. The main topic revolves around the qualities needed in assistant coaches. Steve outlines three essential roles: the "energizer bunny" who handles administrative tasks, the "Yoda" who has deep basketball knowledge, and the "Nelly" who challenges decisions and avoids being a yes-man. He stresses the importance of assistants providing diverse perspectives and skills to complement the head coach's strengths and weaknesses. Coach Barker adds that new coaches should prioritize assistants with whom they have strong relationships and trust over purely technical knowledge. He also highlights the importance of having a diverse coaching staff, including younger coaches and those who can handle specific tasks like parent communication or film analysis. Barker also mentions the benefit of having someone on staff who is present in the school to handle day-to-day issues and maintain player relationships. They both agree that a well-rounded coaching staff is critical for a program's success, with each member bringing unique strengths. Trust, respect, and the ability to work well together are crucial factors when selecting assistant coaches. The episode concludes with Steve and Barker reflecting on the importance of enjoying the company of one's coaching staff, especially during challenging times. ⁠GameChanger Website⁠ ⁠Dr Dish Website⁠ ⁠CoachingYouthHoops.com⁠ ⁠https://forms.gle/kQ8zyxgfqwUA3ChU7⁠ ⁠Coach Collins Coaching Store⁠ Check out.  [Teachhoops.com](⁠https://teachhoops.com/⁠) 14 day Free Trial Youth Basketball Coaches Podcast Apple link: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coaching-youth-hoops/id1619185302⁠ Spotify link: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/0g8yYhAfztndxT1FZ4OI3A⁠ ⁠Funnel Down Defense Podcast⁠ ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/funnel-down-defense/id1593734011⁠ Want More ⁠Funnel Down Defense⁠ ⁠https://coachcollins.podia.com/funnel-down-defense⁠ [Facebook Group .

Teachhoops.com⁠ ⁠WintheSeason.com⁠ In this episode of Coach Unplugged from the 5th Quarter Studios in Madison, Wisconsin, host Steve Collins discusses creating good shots in basketball with a guest coach. Steve starts by encouraging listeners to leave reviews and thanking the sponsors, Doctor Dish and ttubes.com. Doctor Dish is highlighted as the top shooting machine, while ttubes.com is promoted as a comprehensive resource for basketball coaches with a 14-day free trial and 1-on-1 mentoring. The discussion focuses on strategies for creating good shots, emphasizing transition play. The first seven seconds after gaining possession is considered the optimal time for an open shot, supported by analytics. The guest coach stresses running in transition to beat the defense. They discuss the subjective nature of a good shot, introducing the "ROB" acronym (Range, Open, Balance) to define it. They explore methods for creating good shots through actions like dribble hand-offs and pick and rolls, designed to create advantages. The role of the shot clock is addressed, with the guest coach explaining their approach at the high school level by encouraging players to take the first good shot as the clock winds down. Practice strategies are highlighted, including small-sided games and drills like 3v3 back tap to simulate game situations and create advantages. Emphasis is placed on teaching players to quickly push the ball up the floor, using drills that start players behind half court to practice transition scenarios. Both coaches agree on the importance of clear communication and consistent expectations for what constitutes a good shot. They stress that regular practice and reinforcement of these principles are key to effective offensive play. The episode concludes with Steve thanking the guest and reminding listeners to subscribe to the podcast on Apple, Spotify, or their preferred platform. Learn more about your ad choices.

Paul grew up in Sheffield, England and talks about his upbringing which included spending some years in Jamaica as a kid. He had a modest amateur career in his own words, but it was always Paul's ambition to turn professional and he would begin his pro career with very mixed results, winning only 3 of his first 7 contests. Paul was eager to improve and spent a number of years training and fighting in Canada alongside former Olympic medalist and world amateur champion, Shawn O'Sullivan. Paul would soon return to England and begin winning fights over the next 3 years. In 1992 after a stoppage defeat to Paul Wesley, he would retire from the sport and be out of the ring for over 2 years and would face many dark days. When he would decide to return to the sport, he would train and spar alongside Irish boxers, Eamon Loughran and Steve Collins under the Barry Hearn Matchroom stable. Then in 1995, he would win his first major title when he stopped Damien Denny at the Ulster Hall in April, 1995 for the WBO Inter-continental title. This win would lead to an unexpected World title shot against champion, Verno Phillips in Paul's hometown of Sheffield. Paul would put on the performance of his life to win a points decision and become Britain's first Light-Middleweight world champion.Paul opens up about the tough times that would follow after this moment as he was stripped of his title due to politics and never defended the title. He would fight on for 7 more years and claim a Commonwealth Middleweight title and WBC International Super-Middleweight title. Paul finally talks about how life has been since retirement and also about his new autobiography which will be released later this year.
