How do we change this culture at our school or within our coaching staff?
Evaluations at the end of the season by the players about your coaches. They should be anonymous and handed into the athletic department or filled out electronically.
Create a series of questions ... here are some samples:
1. How were you treated this season by your coaches?
2. Did you ever witness physical and/or verbal abuse by the coaches?
3. What virtue lessons did your coaches teach you this season?
4. What team building activities or events did your coaches implement this season?
5. Did you feel like you grew as a person during this past season? How?
6. How did your coaches react after a loss?
7. How did your coaches react after a win?
8. If you had to give your coaches an overall grade of A-F, what grade would you give them and why?
9. What was the best moment of your season?
10. What was the worst moment of your season?
11. What did you love the most about your coaches this season?
12. What did you dislike the most about your coaches this season?
13. Do you feel like you were mentored appropriately this season?
