In this episode of Gloves Off, we’re going to reimagine the morning huddle. Think about it more like a morning tailgate because it’s a time to cheer each other on. You can’t go into your practice for the day without a plan—you must get the whole team ready.

We’ll talk about the differences between a huddle and a tailgate and what a morning tailgate can accomplish for your practice. Remember, you can’t have the best day possible if you don’t start off with the best morning possible.
