I think running as a form of punishment is stupid.

Yeah, making players understand that actions have consequences while adding some conditioning is stupid.

3rd through 5th grade the kid played travel basketball on a team whose coach was, honestly, over the top. They ran killers when mistakes were made. 5th grade season making a mistake got you a seat on a chair while everyone else ran killers. I don't think they liked it, it just was what it was. They did like winning, and they won a lot. I can't tell you how many times, after finding out I was a dad, people told me we weren't the most talented team in the tournament, but we were the most disciplined. These were what, 8 to 10 yr old kids, and we're talking 18+. Dam man you all are rasing some soft kids.
