Ep 391 Is Your Team Peaking at the Right Time… or Running on Empty?
Wednesday, 18 February, 2026
www.teachhoops.com Tournament season exposes everything — your habits, your toughness, your details, and your decision-making under pressure. In this episode, we talk about how to get your team peaking at the right time by simplifying what you do, tightening your focus, and building confidence through reps that actually transfer to win-or-go-home games. This is about sharpening the blade, not adding more weight to it. We break down the “tournament winners” checklist: rebounding like it’s personal, sprinting back in transition, valuing every possession, and making free throws when legs are tired. You’ll learn how to structure practices with short, high-intensity segments and pressure situations — without overtraining. We also cover the best way to scout so players walk into the game with clarity, not confusion. Finally, we hit the mental side — because tournament games are emotional. Bad calls. Momentum swings. Tight rims. Loud crowds. We’ll talk about creating a next-play mindset, having a simple Plan B, and using timeouts and halftime to calm the chaos. Your team doesn’t need perfect. They need poised.
