Inside Hoops- Players End of Season Survey

The following are sample questions for players in the post-season. The players are asked to complete these questions in our post-season meeting. They then turn the questions into the coach at the end of the meeting. 

Later in the spring, the coach puts out a sign up sheet for individual meetings. The players who are planning to play basketball the next year are expected to sign up for a meeting time with the coach.

At the individual meetings, the coach can use the player’s survey as a basis for the conversation. If the player’s answers are not aligned with the coach’s thoughts, it is part of a necessary conversation. And if the player’s answers are not aligned with their teammates, that can be part of the conversation.
