3. POSITIVE /CHARTING . fAsk bench players to,keep a Positive
Chart (Jfrom the sideline during practices or games. Help them see
when things are going right as a team,and for individual
teammates.- Write down the name of each player. - Look for positive
things they do. - When you see one,jot it down. - Be honest.Dont
write down things that don't happen.- End practice by reviewing the
chart as a team. I Download Positive Charting Form
4. BUDDY /SYSTEM Use the buddy system,where an active player is
paired with a bench player.The bench player is responsible
forfilling the emotional tankof the active player,commenting on all
of the things the active player is doing right. I Watch this video
& see how to do it i
5. EFFORT STICKERS/ Reward the effort of all .players active
and bench players with an effort chart from practice. Every time a
player hustles or goes the extra mile,they earn a sticker on the
chart. Regardless of whether you start or come off the bench,you
can earn multiple stickers. I See a basketball coach put this into
practice I
6. scour // //7;)TEAM . / A SCOUT TEAMBench players can help
starting players get prepared for a big game by becoming the scout
team, emulating the playing styleof the opposing team during
practice. Bench players can come together to form an elite squad
that is responsible for not only preparing themselves,but also
preparing their teammates.

as much as kids do! Consider having a Parent Bench role. Some ideas
include: - Parents make the brush it off sign every time they see a
play that didnt go their teams way,helping kids know its okay and
to just move on. - Parents cheer the official team cheer whenever a
player displays a great effort.Tigers Roar!
