https://teachhoops.com/ Who is really leading your program when the coaches are not in the room? In this episode, Coach Collins talks about one of the biggest leadership questions of the offseason and why the end of April is the perfect time for coaches to examine it. This is the stretch of the year when the season is over, the emotion has settled, and attention starts to shift toward summer. That makes it one of the most important times to evaluate whether your culture is truly strong or whether it only works when adults are watching. Coach Collins breaks down why real leadership shows up in open gyms, group chats, workouts, locker rooms, and all the moments that never make the stat sheet. He also digs into the difference between loud players and true leaders, why leadership has to be taught on purpose, and how coaches can create real ownership instead of fake ownership. This episode is about building a program where standards are carried by players, not just enforced by coaches. For coaches planning their offseason, this is a strong reminder that summer leadership does not happen by accident. It has to be identified, taught, and grown now. If you want a program that is deeper, stronger, and more player-driven next season, this episode will help point you in the right direction. Learn more about your ad choices.
