Compare the exact team before accepting a roster spot.
Check enjoyment, belonging, and respect
- How does the player describe the session: welcomed, challenged, heard, and safe enough to make mistakes?
- How do coaches communicate with players about role changes, limited minutes, conflict, and difficult feedback?
- How can a player raise a concern or ask for clarity, and who helps if the first conversation does not solve it?
- What do the team’s everyday interactions suggest about friendships, inclusion, respect, and whether this pace is sustainable?
