Recognising several athletes
Get through a squad without it eating your evening.
CoachesAwarding is one athlete at a time, by design — a point that names a child is worth something and a point given to everyone is not. But you can move quickly.
A workable routine
- Pick three or four athletes at the end of the session, not the whole squad.
- Award each in the moment, with a one-line note.
- Next session, pick different ones.
- Use the Recognition Tracker to see who you have not reached.
Over a month, everyone gets recognised, and each award means something because it was not automatic.
Whole-squad recognition
For something the entire team did, post a shoutout to the feed instead. See Posting a shoutout.
Tip: Three athletes per session, chosen with the tracker open, covers a squad of eighteen every fortnight. That is a sustainable rhythm; "everyone every week" is not.
