"Unless we learn how to do things together we are just going to be spinning our wheels." ~ Jan Weisberg, Head Baseball Coach, Birmingham Southern College. This video series isn't just for baseball coaches. Anyone who is a Coach or leader, whether in sports or in any capacity, will benefit from this clinic on Team Building. Coach Weisberg talks about what it takes to form uniquely talented individuals into a successful whole.
Team Building: Communication Part One - Beginning from day one with athletes the first goal is build a team. Everything else revolves around that. But where do you start? Coach Weisberg starts by defining the five most important aspects of success, beginning with Communication.
Team Building: Communication Part Two - Communication is a skill. It can be taught and it can be learned. Here Coach shares the importance of clear, focused communication on and off the field. From praise to encouragement to criticism, Coach offers tips to help you communicate with your athletes and your athletes communicate with each other.
Team Building: Communication Part Three - Too often Coaches see communication as a one way street. They tell athletes what to do and they do it. That may be necessary at times, but getting the feedback of your players will greatly improve success on the field. It will also give players a sense of ownership of the game. Open, honest communication will result in the emergence of natural leaders for your team. Learn some fun and innovatiive ways to teach this give and take to your athletes in this video.
Team Building: Trust - Trust is about knowing the other person is going to be where they need to be when you need them to be there - whether it is a time of success or failure.
Trust allows players to demonstrate their commitment to their team and their teammates. It's essential to success on and off the baseball field. Coach discusses why in this video segment.
Team Building: Responsibility - Not a lot of rules but you should develop your team so they know how to deal with reality and don't make excuses.
Team Building: Caring and Pride - Caring is a big part of what sports is about. Coaches to players and teammate to teammate. Caring takes lots of different forms and Coach discusses why it is essential to building a strong team. If you care, then you want to have pride in your performance.

Team Building: Game Goals - Game goals give players something to sink their teeth into, as well as keeping everyone on the same page. Goals foster communication and keep players focused on the success of the team as a whole.
Team Building: Handling Anxiety - When things get tough on the field it usually means things are moving fast. Sometimes too fast. To help players handle anxiety you have to help them slow down.
