Playing time drama isn't about entitled kids. It's about unclear roles. Here's the 15-minute system that eliminates it! Join the Championship Program Membership → champions.elitecompetitor.com for more tips and resources! 

In this episode, I'm breaking down why playing time drama happens (spoiler: you're probably creating it without knowing) and the exact Player Impact Plan system I use with all 12 varsity athletes.

Here's what you'll learn:
✅ Why "open door policies" don't work with 14-year-olds 
✅ The confusion cycle that creates resentment and drama 
✅ How to document roles, expectations, and playing time in one meeting 
✅ Why this 15-minute investment saves you hours later 

This isn't theory. It's the system I've used for years as a four-time state champion coach. 

👋🏼 Hi, I'm Coach Bre, a 4-time state champion high school volleyball coach with 14+ years of coaching experience. I'm also a Certified Mental Performance Coach and co-founder of The Elite Competitor, where I help coaches build mentally tough, confident girl athletes who perform when it matters most. My signature frameworks (like the Snapback Routine and 3-2-1 BRAVE) are used by thousands of coaches to teach mental training without adding hours to their schedule. 

The Player Impact Plan (PIP) gives every athlete crystal-clear answers to: 
👉 What's my role? 
👉 How much will I play? 
👉 What are my strengths? 
👉 Where do I need to grow? 
👉 What does my coach expect from me? 

When everyone's on the same page from day one (including parents), the drama doesn't start. Grab the PIP template here: https://elitecompetitor.kit.com/6639eaaf9f
