As captain of a high school team, what's the best way to promote team bonding? Our team last year had some issues with upperclassmen vs. underclassmen divisions, and overall we didn't have a close bond. How do you go about creating a tight-knit family? Every successful team/program that I've seen seems to have a family-like bond within the team, and I think that's one of the things our program has been lacking for a long time.
Now I know it's tough to force people to have fun or force people to like each other, but what are some things a captain could organize to start fostering that bond? Things like going out to eat after practice, hanging out together before games, etc.
Thanks!
