Welcome back to Building Better Basketball, the podcast where we explore the people, ideas, and innovations shaping the game at every level. I’m your host, Neil Gray, and today, I’m thrilled to be joined by someone who has spent years championing the development of coaches, athletes, and communities—Jason Sacks.

Jason is the President of the Positive Coaching Alliance and a nationally respected voice in youth sports development. With a background that spans grassroots coaching, nonprofit leadership, and national advocacy, Jason brings a unique blend of practical experience and big-picture thinking to everything he does.

In this episode, we’ll dive into how to build positive, player-first environments, what great coaching really looks like beyond the Xs and Os, and why character development belongs at the heart of sport. Whether you're a coach, parent, or administrator, you’re going to walk away with tools and insights to help you build better basketball in your own backyard.
