Watch as Omri Rachmut explains that outside noises are an excuse to make players feel good. There are outside voices that your players hear besides the coaches. Sometimes it is parents who are providing the outside voices. Parental love can be blinded and that may not convey what a player needs to hear but what they want to hear. Coaches provide the players with a roadmap to help them improve by showing who they are and where they want to go. When teaching accountability, it is key to create clear and concise definitions of what the coaches are looking for and what they want. When mistakes are made, attack the problem and not the person and focus on solutions and not issues.
