Build the Machine #5 ⚡ The Role Sheet Solves Storms Before They Hit
I’ll never forget this.
Playoff loss. Tough one.
After the game, a dad comes down… and lets me have it. “My son should’ve been playing.”
And in his mind… he was right.
That’s when it hit me:
We had a communication problem, not just a football problem.
That moment is what led me to creating the Role Sheet.
Twice a year, every player gets it.
It answers:
  • Where do I stand?
  • What is my role?
  • What do I need to do to move up?
No guessing. No confusion.
Because here’s the truth:
👉 Most “storms” in a program aren’t surprises
👉 They’re just unspoken expectations
And when those expectations finally show up…
💥 They show up as:
  • Frustrated parents
  • Confused players
  • Locker room tension
  • “He should be playing” conversations
The Role Sheet doesn’t eliminate hard conversations…
👉 It moves them earlier
👉 It makes them clearer
👉 It builds trust instead of tension
We’re talking about this TODAY on the podcast:
🎙️ The 11 Storms That Are Coming This Fall
This is one of them.
And the Role Sheet is one of the simplest ways to solve multiple storms before they ever hit.
💬 Question:
Do your players truly know their role right now?
Or are you hoping they figure it out?
