⛹🏽TSF 044: Get a Head Coaching Job - Guaranteed!


Good morning to all 11,800 internet basketball junkies receiving this newsletter!

If you’re looking to land a high school basketball head coaching job, you are in luck.

I dropped a long form video on YouTube outlining the step-by-step process of how to go about accomplishing that. I would never say it’s easy, but the video outlines a fool-proof system on how to go about doing that.

If you want to watch the video, it leads off The Starting Five this week…

THE STARTING FIVE


🥇 Best of the Week The top three things you need to do to get a high school head coaching job:

video preview

PG - ✍️ I’ve enjoyed Conner Harr’s newsletter, with advanced basketball tactics and trending offensive concepts.

Coach Harr is a current assistant coach for West Liberty, and has a great eye for the game. If you’re interested, SIGN UP HERE

SG - 📺 What would it look like if Circle Motion and The Flex were blended together?

Well, HERE YA GO

SF - 🐥 Have you heard of the “70% Rule” for rebounding?

If you haven’t, you should check out “Bound for Glory” by Coach Battenberg. If you have, there’s dozens of more gems just like it in the aforementioned guide.


PF - 📖 Steve Kerr played for two of the greatest NBA coaches ever in Phil Jackson and Gregg Popovich.

He was asked, "What made them both so effective as coaches?" Check out THIS POST by @coachajkings for the one characteristic that made both coaches great.

C - 💭 The offense I’ve always used to contrast Circle Motion is “Flow”

It’s a roll and replace ball screen continuity with DDM principles. It forces the defense to defend the complete opposite set of principles of the passing, cutting, and screening of Circle Motion.

OFF THE BENCH

📺 Lots and lots of questions about Circle Motion vs zone defense lately

🐥 Tired of practices starting slow with low energy? Check out Coach Kramer’s pre-practice routine

🎥 What am I working on? More long form videos for YouTube… More “Chalk Talk” videos as supporting features for existing products… a Zone Motion film breakdown… A project on the Merrimack Zone

“As a young head coach, I have a ton of new ideas I want to implement. Powerhouse Program Building has allowed me to put those ideas on paper and figure out which ones were feasible, and it gave me many more ideas to add to my program. I would recommend this to every coach out there.”

Sadly, tonight is the last basketball game for my hometown Cleveland Cavaliers 😢

It was a good run. The Celtics are too much.

I love the NBA playoffs. Long, physical series’ with coaching chess matches. The best athletes in the world laying it all on the line. Win or go home. The Nuggets and Timberwolves might be playing for the championship right now.

Who are you picking to bring home the title?


Have a great week!
