Ok, so while at hour 12 of the family Christmas stuff today my mind started to drift toward football things and I wanted to get the thoughts of the Huey Community on some things.
For the last few years I've really wondered how much our kids get out of both our A) Traditional Playbook and B) Traditional Scouting Reports and what we may be able to do to improve those mediums by which we teach our kids what we want to do.
When I am talking about a Traditional Playbook I mean the following: Paper handouts with assignment rules and diagrams of the play against various fronts/from various formations.
When I am talking about Traditional Scouting Report I mean the following: Paper handouts that contain the following --> Opponent Roster, Opponent Defensive Personnel, Opponent Offensive Personnel, Defensive Fronts/Blitzes, New Offensive Installs, Top Opponent Runs/Passes/Formations, New Defensive Installs (ends up being alot of Paper).
What I am thinking about doing is conduction an online survey of our players to determine the effectiveness of those two tools for them. I'd like to keep this all online because I think we have a better chance of our kids actually completing them if they can just do them quickly on their phones and I want to preserve anonymity for kids.
I would like to find out a few things from these surveys
1) How much are they actually looking at the physical paper copies
2) How effective do they feel that those paper copies are in helping them to learn what they need to learn
3) Are there other things that we could use that would be either augment or be a better way to distribute information (if so, what)?
My question is this:
In looking at what I want to find out what are some of the questions you would ask and how would you word the questions as to make sure you didn't lead the kids in a particular direction. As you can probably tell I don't feel like our kids really ever look at them and therefore get nothing out of them but I don't want to word questions or ask questions that just confirms what I want to think. If my inclinations are true, I want it to be because that's what the kids are saying, not because they were steered that way.
Also, what are some recommendations for what i want to use on this? I know surveymonkey is a very popular medium for this, but does anyone have experiences with others? Good/Bad?
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
