Lady Vols

Great Article on Tennessee's Women's Basketball Program.  The program is in transition as Coach Summitt steps away from the leadership position of head coach.  Some traditions are embraced and some new traditions are being defined.

Routine is important: Coach Summitt implemented routines after visiting with a sports psychologist.  The team huddles in a circle with everyone's feet touching.  What routines do you implement?

Conditioning:  The conditioning test is changing from 5 sprints in 5 minutes to 20 sprints in 20 minutes. What is your conditioning philosophy?  What test will players pass to prove to you and themselves they are in shape for the upcoming season?

Cell phone policy:  Can players take cell phones on the bus?  Only use after the game?  Must be silenced or turned off during team meetings?  Social media and cell phones are such a big part of this generation that you must have a plan.

How do you dress on the road?  At home?
