SAVI Sync - Exchange
Coaches build a lot of great material on their own: plays, playbooks, drills, practice plans. Exchange is where that work stops living in isolation. Here is what it does: - Add your own plays, playbooks, drills, or practice plans - Browse what other coaches across SAVI Sync have shared - Save the ones you want to reuse - See what has been shared with you directly If you have a play that works or a practice plan you are proud of, drop it in Exchange. The next coach who needs it will thank you. Head to the Exchange tab in the app to check it out. To learn how to navigate to Exchange: https://sync.savicoach.com/#/help/library/browse-the-exchange

SAVI Sync - What's New
Two new things in SAVI Sync: What's New, and a rebuilt Help section You shouldn't have to guess what changed. Now you don't. WHAT'S NEW The sparkle button in the top right opens What's New — a short list of recent features, each one telling you which part of Sync it lives in and what it does. A gold dot means there's something you haven't read. You'll also see a gold NEW label beside the tab where a feature actually lives, so you find it while you're working instead of going looking for it. Click the label (not the tab) for a couple of sentences on what it does. Nothing pops up on its own. What you've read is remembered against your account, not your browser — clear a dot on your laptop and it's cleared on your phone too. "Mark all read" clears the lot. HELP, REBUILT Help is searchable now, and it searches the actual instructions, not just the guide titles. Type "monochrome" and you get the printing guide, even though the word is buried in step four. A few other things worth knowing: • Every guide has its own page and its own link — so you can send a coach straight to the thing they asked about instead of telling them where to scroll. • Guides are filed under the same seven sections as the app — Hub, Schedule, Teams, Plans, Library, Settings, Admin — so you look for help where the feature lives. • A Getting Started tab reads your account and ticks off what you've already set up: a team, a season, a roster, a schedule, your first practice plan, an invited coach. • Guides tell you which plan they are part of, so you know before you click. Help is under your profile menu in the top right. Go have a look!

SAVI Sync - What's New
Practice Planner
Hey all! I have been listening to the SAVI podcasts for quite some time now. I coach 6th grade school and AAU basketball. My son is 12 and a pretty talented player, so I have been supporting him on his journey. I really got into small sided games and playing basketball instead of just running drills. In one of the last podcasts there was discussion around formatting practices with the quarters concept. As I am a technology consultant, former software engineer leading a team of 50 software engineers, I decided to create something to help me with my practice plans following this format. I am still working on new features, but it helped me with my practice last night. I thought I would share here in the event others are interested. Please note that all data is stored on your local storage of the browser and not a persistent database yet. So if you clear your local storage, you will lose anything you had saved. Was building this as a proof of concept to start. NOW: Partnering with SAVI to build out SAVI Sync. Check it out at https://sync.savicoach.com

I coach my oldest son's 6th grade school and AAU teams in Pennsylvania. I have been coaching him since Kindergarten, but School and AAU ball since 3rd grade. I wish coaching could be my full time job, as I have a passion for growing the youth and a love for basketball. I also have a 1st grader, for which I coached him this year and last year in rec ball. He does not have the same drive and passion for the game as my 12 year old, but he is still young. My background is software engineering. I work for a large Tax, Audit and Consulting company and lead a team of 50 software developers building Custom Applications. After listening to the recent episode around practice planning with quarters, I created an application to help me guide my practice plans. Sharing here in the event anyone else finds this helpful. https://shaneshearer.github.io/practice-planner/
🎙️ The Hours: Ep. 103 "Plan A Better Practice"
Stop overcomplicating your practices. In this episode, we break down a "Four Quarter" basketball practice plan designed to eliminate distractions and build game-ready toughness, pressure defense, and high-volume shooting. Ready to simplify your coaching? Get instant access to our SAVI Basketball Membership with a 7-day free trial. Unlock our full classroom of courses, weekly live coaching calls, and exclusive community support here: https://www.skool.com/savi-coach Most coaches try to fix too many things at once and leave the gym wondering if they actually got better. We discuss how to use "the process of elimination" to prioritize what your team needs right now, whether it’s disruptive full-court pressure or hitting a 200-shot daily goal. In this video, you’ll learn: 📋 How to structure a 4-Quarter Practice Plan to maximize game-like transfer. 🗣️ The difference between Pre-Practice (building habits) and Prime (high-level teaching). 🧠 Specific small-sided games like 3-on-4 Keep Away and Streak Shooting to build mental toughness. 💪 Why a "neat and tidy" practice plan is often less effective than one that addresses immediate team needs. Chapters: 0:00 - The secret to a good practice plan 1:09 - Improving practice through the process of elimination 2:01 - Challenge: Practice WITHOUT offense, rebounding, or layups 3:42 - How to get every player 200 shots per practice 5:52 - Elements of the 4-Quarter Practice Plan 8:06 - Pre-Practice: Tune shooting and defensive stance vitamins 10:05 - Prime: Teaching the trap and recovery 13:00 - Priming toughness: The Tough One-on-One drill 14:32 - Quarter 1: 3-on-4 Keep Away game 15:39 - Quarter 2: 4-on-4 Passing out of a trap 16:50 - Quarter 3: 5-on-5 "And One" (Press & Press Break) 17:31 - Quarter 4: Streak Shooting and Crack Back/Skip Backs 19:57 - Final thoughts: Coach the team you have, not the one you saw at a clinic
