Today, I'm excited to be joined by Dr. Jon DeMarco. Coach DeMarco is a former college football player, High School Basketball Coach (Boston Globe Coach of the Year) & football coach.

Coach DeMarco prides himself on working hard to help mentor and train the next generation of coaches and athletes. Coach DeMarco is the founder and owner of Get Better Basketball. He also hosts a weekly twitter chat, Get Better Basketball Chat (#GBetBBChat), to help new and veteran youth sports coaches share the game.

Jon has presented at several coaches clinics, including the recent virtual coaches clinic. His insights on the game have led him to having an influential career in education as well. He has a Doctoral Degree in Organizational Leadership and serves in leadership positions within his district.

In this episode, we talk developing core values and dive into tangible ways to help you build a strong culture within your program.
